Amsbio reports how the Sasaki Lab within the School of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania (USA) devised a protocol in which induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) could be utilized to produce reconstituted human testes. Since the original 2020 publication of their groundbreaking research, Dr Kotaro Sasaki’s team has made significant progress in reconstituting human testis-like tissue from iPSCs...

Astronauts wrap up mission after supporting research that could lead to new cancer treatments, more lifelike robotics, space debris removal, and more. After nearly six months onboard the International Space Station (ISS), the four astronauts of NASA’s SpaceX Crew-10 mission have safely returned to Earth. This weekend’s splashdown off the coast of California concludes a long-duration science expedition that supported dozens of investigations sponsored by the ISS National Laboratory^®.

Camena Bioscience (Camena), an innovator in enzymatic DNA synthesis, and Constructive Bio (Constructive), a pioneer in whole genome writing, have announced they have joined a collaborative project led by the Max-Planck Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology (MPI-MP), Germany, for a research initiative to develop synthetic chloroplast genomes.

Fuel cells are powering a growing number of clean energy technologies, from electric vehicles to grid-scale power solutions. With their quiet operation, high energy density and zero emissions at the point of use, they offer a compelling alternative to combustion-based technologies. But scaling fuel cells for widespread adoption depends on a deeper understanding of the materials that impact their performance and reliability...
