A fluorescent embryo allows scientists to watch living cells organise themselves in real time, revealing processes previously ...
Occipital meningomyeloceles are rare and challenging conditions for the anaesthesiologist, mainly because of the difficulty ...
Abstract: We show that feedforward neural networks generalize on low complexity data, suitably defined. Given data generated from a simple programming language, the minimum description length (MDL) ...
Stem cell therapy could represent a new frontier in the treatment of certain birth defects. Preliminary research published today suggests that donor stem cells received in the womb can help children ...
Florida State University researchers have demonstrated that significantly increasing dietary folic acid in mice can prevent peripheral neuropathy, a condition commonly associated with diabetes and ...
A patch made of stem cells from donor placentas has been used to treat fetuses in the womb with a severe form of spina bifida as part of a world-first trial. The novel approach seems to have reversed ...

The authors used genetic mutations in VANGL2 to study cell morphological changes during differentiation of hPSCs and understand the mechanisms underlying neural tube closure defects. The findings are ...
ORLANDO, Fla. — A new bill up for debate could help reduce the risk of birth defects. The bill looks to fortify enriched grain products with folic acid to help reduce neural tube defects, including ...
Changes are coming to tortillas in California in the new year, with a new law requiring manufacturers to add folic acid to corn masa products. The goal is to decrease birth defects in children born to ...
Tortillas sold in California are going to have a new ingredient, one that’s intended to help nurture infants. Starting Jan. 1, a new law will take effect requiring most tortillas and corn masa ...
