Unlike in other models, the stem cells actually stay alive.

Artificial bone marrow tissue mimics stem cells' natural habitat

Health & Medicine

Researchers successfully created an artificial bone marrow tissue in which they could keep stem cells alive for several days at a time.

Artificial Bone Marrow Tissue Mimics Stem Cells' Natural Habitat

It could help us find new treatments for conditions like leukemia.

Artificial Bone Marrow Tissue Mimics Stem Cells’ Natural Habitat

Hard Science

This new system can be applied to live subjects and has a 7 percent gene editing success rate, way higher than the 0.1 percent success rate of typical gene editing methods.
Gene editing could lead to better treatments or even cures for diseases like HIV or cancer.
