In June 2016, around 200 scientists from all over the world gathered at EMBL headquarters in Heidelberg, Germany to discuss the recent advances in hematopoietic stem cells from three different angles: developmental, adulthood and aging. The meeting, aptly named 'Hematopoietic stem cells: from the embryo to the aging organism' also covered cutting-edge technologies applied to this subject, such ...

The Company of Biologists recently launched a new series of workshops aimed at bringing together scientists with different backgrounds to discuss cutting edge research in emerging and cross-disciplinary areas of biology. The first workshop was held at Wilton Park, Sussex, UK, and the chosen theme was 'Neural Stem Cells in Development and Disease', which is indeed a hot topic, not only because o...

the investigation was conducted on wet and dry seasons of ethiopia during the year 2012/2013 at wondo genet agricultural research center nursery site. four levels of cutting size and three levels of cutting positions were arranged in randomized complete block design with three replications. data on seedling height, branch number/seedling, root number/seedling, root weigh/seedling, root length/s...

Leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala (Lam.) de Wit) has proven to be a very productive tropical legume, but the factors which control production under intensive management have not been well defined. Thus three harvest frequencies (based on attained plant height), three population densities, and two plant types of leucaena were evaluated at North Kohala, Hawaii (120-m elevation, Typic Ustropept). Pl...

Considering the ease of isolation and high expansion potential of pulp stem/progenitor cells isolated from wisdom and primary teeth they have been implicated as the most reliable autologous cell source in dental tissue engineering. Meanwhile, different isolation methods have remarkable impacts on the expansion potential of adult stem cells. In enzymatic digestion method extracted teeth as denta...
