Every day, your body replaces billions of cells—and yet, your tissues stay perfectly organized. How is that possible? A team of researchers at ChristianaCare's Helen F. Graham Cancer Center & Research ...

Researchers discovered that epithelial cells use electricity to expel weak, energy-poor neighbors and maintain tissue health.

That gap between training models and real organs has limited how well medical professionals can prepare before entering the ...

Scientists have mapped underappreciated scaffolding cells in skin, known as fibroblasts. They show for the first time how fibroblasts go 'rogue' in many different diseases affecting multiple organs – ...

Budding surgeons may soon train on stretchy, lifelike 3D-printed skin that oozes out blood and pus when cut.
