Scientists have grown a human embryo-like structure in a lab which replicates very early human development - including the production of blood stem cells. The lab-grown embryo model could help ...

Researchers have used supercomputers to model how red blood cells deform and become damaged in mechanical circulatory support devices, such as blood pumps used for heart failure patients. The study ...

Using data from hospitals and emergency medical service providers to map out areas with the greatest need for trauma care and prehospital whole blood transfusions can enable hospital systems to deploy ...
