Scientists at the Wyss Institute have created an approach called ReConstruct that creates living tissue implants from a patient’s own cells for safer reconstruction surgery following a mastectomy. wyss.harvard.edu/technology/…

ReConstruct: Vascularized Tissue for Breast Reconstruction and Augmentation

ReConstruct is a platform for growing, vascularizing, and implanting patient-derived tissues that enable safer breast reconstruction after cancer surgery.

RNAseq is commonly performed. We compared N=30 wild-type Bl6 mice to an N=30 heterozygotic knockout with a phenotype, and then downsized. We found you need at least an N= 8-12 to avoid a >50% false positive rate. A 2nd line confirmed the finding. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Determining the appropriate sample size (N) for comparative biological experiments is critical for obtaining reliable results. In order to determine the N, the usual approach is to perform a power...

We hadden het niet beter kunnen zeggen dan @arjenlubach: "Het nieuwe kabinet gebruikt innovatie als een soort gratis toverwoord om alle gaten op te vullen. Maar intussen bezuinigen ze op onderwijs, op wetenschap en op innovatie. Dat is zó dom." 🔥 youtube.com/watch?v=Qa_1lwAt…

Stunning finding: a hormone that dramatically strengthens bones (in mice). Hormone is prominent in lactating mice, but works also in male mice! Score one more for how a women's health focus is a rising tide that lifts all boats. ucsf.edu/news/2024/07/428011…

A newly discovered hormone explains why females can maintain bone density during lactation, when calcium is stripped away to make milk. This discovery could one day have applications to treating...

We thought there wasn't much new to learn about the cell cycle. Turns out we were wrong! Our paper (out today @Nature) identifies a novel alternative cell cycle that regulates differentiation, not cell division. tinyurl.com/4a6yeuke. 1/10
