The Quest for Stem Cells: Discovering Where They Come From
This short video explains that stem cells are special cells that can develop into different types of cells, and are found in all organisms, including plants, animals, and humans. Human stem cells can come from infant stem cells or adult stem cells. Embryonic stem cells come from blastocysts, which are formed about 5-6 days after […]
Unlocking the Potential of Stem Cell Therapy in Treating Parkinson’s Disease
Stem cell therapy is an emerging and promising treatment method that has been linked to various diseases, such as Parkinson’s Disease. Stem cells are unique in their ability to develop into specialized cells, tissues, and organs, which allows them to replace cells that have been damaged or lost due to disease. In the context of […]

What Are Stem Cells and What Can They Do?
Here’s a very simply and animated explanation of what stem cells are and what they are capable of doing. What Are Stem Cells? Stem Cells When hearing the two words together: ‘stem cells’, most of us would think of cells residing inside the stem of plants. But in reality, stem cells are cells that divide […]
How Cells Become Specialized
Have you ever wondered how cells become specialized? How does a neuron or a muscle cell have the structure and function they have? I mean, can you imagine if they had to switch jobs for a day? That…wouldn’t go so well. They’re so specialized for the function they perform. Well this video is going to […]
