Stem cells are already being used in combating previously untreatable diseases. Nevertheless, stem cells are not delivering their full potential because the production of specific cell types from stem cells cannot yet be managed. Researchers have now...

People with type 1 diabetes strongly depend on injecting synthetically produced insulin. However, this situation may change within a few years. Today, researchers can already recreate insulin-producing beta cells from stem cells, which can be implanted in people with...

Scientists in Denmark say they’re one step closer to developing a stem-cell therapy that could eventually allow patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) to be insulin independent again. Read more...

Researchers from Denmark are developing ways to make lab-grown insulin-producing cells safer. The future of type 1 diabetes treatment is likely to come from living cells that can produce and release insulin inside the person's body. In recent years, scientists have...

NOME (The Nordic mentor network for entrepreneurship) has engaged with four exciting life science startups.  These companies come from a diverse range of technologies, personalized medicine in cancer, a diagnostic for joint damage, a stem cell therapy in diabetes and...
