Prof. Benjamin Dekel wears many hats. “Being a physician-scientist means navigating different worlds,” he notes. “You treat patients, listen to their struggles, then return to the lab to find ...
Scientists at the University of Southern California have succeeded in creating artificial “progenitor” nephron cells to form ...
Scientists have done the impossible and transplanted a lab-grown kidney into a living animal. Or to be specific, a living rat. It might sound crazy—and believe us, it is—but the success represents a ...
Researchers at Tel Aviv University and Sheba Medical Center have made a major scientific breakthrough by successfully growing a human kidney organoid in the laboratory. An organoid is a tiny, ...
