Xenobots, created the first "living machines" with frog stem cells.
An algorithm reassembles a frog's cells and tissues into new living organisms designed to perform specific functions. The era of xenobots, living machines, has begun.
Jasper walks again thanks to the stem
It's a beautiful day at least for dogs: Jasper, a small dachshund paralyzed by an accident, responded magnificently to a 6-month treatment based on stem cells: the results are not far from what a little long ago it could easily be described as a miracle. Jasper no longer sits still, he socializes with others and wanders around the house: he has started walking again, he has come back.

Synthetic organ made 'from scratch' with stem cells.
If you are still not convinced that stem cells are the future of medicine, listen here: a group of Japanese researchers used stem cells to synthesize a new, fully functional organ in the laboratory, starting from SCRATCH. This is the research team at the RIKEN Center for Developmental Biology, which took mouse stem cells and transformed them into a perfectly functioning pituitary gland: the pituitary gland, otherwise called the pituitary gland, is a small organ...
