Todd McDevitt, PhD Photo courtesy: Gladstone Institutes It’s hard enough trying to follow the movements of individuals in a crowd of people, but imagine how much harder it is to follow the movements of stem cells crowded into a tiny petri dish. Well, researchers at the Gladstone Institutes in San Francisco have done just that. … Continue reading How stem cells play “follow the leader”

Gladstone scientists respond to coronavirus pandemic
In these uncertain times, we often look to our top scientists for answers as well as potential solutions. But where does one begin to try and solve a problem of this magnitude? The first logical step is building on the supplies currently available, the work already accomplished, and the knowledge acquired. This is the approach … Continue reading Gladstone scientists respond to coronavirus pandemic
Machine learning used to pattern stem cells – a vital step in organ modeling
Gladstone researchers discovered a method to control the patterns stem cells form in a dish. The work was led by Senior Investigator Todd McDevitt (left) and his team, including (pictured) David Joy and Ashley Libby. When someone thinks of machine learning, the first thing that comes to mind might be the technology used by Netflix … Continue reading Machine learning used to pattern stem cells – a vital step in organ modeling
