An international collaboration study reveals how evolution and locomotion patterns, such as bipedalism, shaped bone ...

Inspired by the growth of bones in the skeleton, researchers have developed a combination of materials that can morph into various shapes before hardening. The material is initially soft, but later ...

Researchers at the University of Alberta have fine-tuned a process for creating accurate digital 3D reconstructions of human bones, offering students and researchers a cost-effective and accessible ...

Hypertrophic chondrocytes are deeply involved in the growth of mammalian bones. Researchers find that these cells transform into multiple functional cell types, including those responsible for ...

The first 'blueprint' of human skeletal development reveals how the skeleton forms, shedding light on the process of arthritis, and highlighting cells involved in conditions that affect skull and bone ...

Hydroxyapatite (HA) is an inorganic mineral present in human bone and teeth. It plays a role in the structural strength of bone and in bone regeneration. While it occurs naturally in bone, healthcare ...

Several other vitamins, from A to K, are critical to a healthy skeleton—but unless you have severe deficiencies, it’s best to get them through your food rather than supplements. Fortified milk is not ...

Stem cells form the backbone of many cell-based therapies due to their unique properties, including the ability to self-renew and differentiate to many cell types. Multiple cell therapies deliver ...

Laura holds a Master's in Experimental Neuroscience and a Bachelor's in Biology from Imperial College London. Her areas of expertise include health, medicine, psychology, and neuroscience. Laura holds ...

Bones are the living tissue on which the human skeleton is constructed and play a key role in enabling physical movements. The structural integrity of bones has been attributed to bone remodeling-aa ...
