Gene-editing tools like CRISPR have unlocked new treatments for previously uncurable diseases. Now, researchers at the ...

- Professors Hao F. Zhang and Xiaomin Bao’s groups used super-resolution imaging on human skin cells for the first time. - The researchers explored the gateways between the cells’ cytoplasm and ...

Japanese researchers have found that vitamin C can thicken skin by switching on genes that boost skin cell growth, helping reverse age-related thinning. It works by reactivating DNA through a process ...

In a new study, researchers from the University of Tokyo, Harvard University, and the International Research Center for Neurointelligence have unveiled a technique for creating lifelike robotic skin ...

SAN DIEGO — Although it has been known for several years that more than 1000 species of bacteria from 19 different phyla inhabit the human skin — mainly the superficial epidermis and upper parts of ...

The skin acts as the body's first line of defense against external threats. However, as we age, the epidermis-the outermost layer of skin-gradually becomes thinner and loses its protective strength.

Gene-editing techniques such as CRISPR have enabled new treatments for previously incurable diseases. Researchers at the ...
