A Natural Molecule May Help Clear Buildup of Alzheimer's Proteins, Study Finds

Cell biologists are one step closer to making viable human eggs from stem cells in the lab. A recent study in mice established a novel method to create relatively mature oocytes (egg precursors) from pluripotent stem cells, supplemented by a mix of proteins and growth factors.
