Scientists have successfully used human stem cells to patch a hole in a monkey’s retina, restoring the primate’s vision and marking a successful step forward in the quest to treat age-related vision ...

Transplanted human stem cells successfully repaired macular holes in monkey models of the disorder. This is according to a new study from researchers at the Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research at ...

NEW YORK -- For the first time, researchers have used the cloning technique that produced Dolly the sheep to create healthy monkeys, bringing science an important step closer to being able to do the ...

COVID-19 continued to dominate lives in 2021. But the year also produced many stunning science images unrelated to the pandemic. From human–monkey embryos to volcanic ash, here are the most striking ...

Gleaning stem cells from cloned monkey embryos, as a team of Oregon researchers has done, is an impressive step. But it probably won't lead to medical treatments anytime soon. One hurdle is ethical ...

Early human development is a complex, multistep process that’s even more complicated to study in the lab. Models made from stem cells avoid some of the trouble with using real human embryos. In June, ...

Scientists were able to treat a "macular hole" in a monkey, helping to restore the animal's vision thanks to human stem cells. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...
