Human Cell Atlas maps 100 million cells, unlocks mysteries in medical research
Scientists with the Human Cell Atlas have profiled 100 million cells from over 10,000 people worldwide, aiming to map the human body down to the cellular level.
Human Cell Atlas hopes to be 'Google Maps' for health research
Scientists from around the world are making headway in compiling a Human Cell Atlas -- a deep dive into the myriad types of cells in the body and their disparate roles in health and disease.
Amazing new images as 37-trillion-cell 'human atlas' nears first draft
Eight years on from the formation of the Human Cell Atlas (HCA) consortium, which set out with the hugely ambitious task of mapping the entire human body – around 37.2 trillion cells – scientists reveal that it's nearly at its first draft stage.
Scientists Create First Draft of Human 'Cell Atlas' for Disease Research
New advances allow scientists to study DNA, RNA, and gene activity in individual cells rather than in bulk tissue samples.
