Scientists Map Out Human Body 1 Cell at a Time

Scientists take huge step forward in making atlas of all 37 trillion cells in the human body
Scientists published more than three dozen papers as part of the Human Cell Atlas, an effort to map the human body cell by cell.
Scientists map out the human body one cell at a time
Scientists focused on certain organs — plotting the jobs of cells in the mouth, stomach and intestines, as well as cells that guide how bones and joints develop. They also explored which cells group into tissues, where they're located in the body and how they change over time.
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.
Atlas of cells transforms understanding of human body
An ambitious plan to map all 37 trillion cells in the human body is transforming understanding of how our bodies work, scientists report. The received wisdom said we were built from around 200 types of cell – such as heart muscle or nerve cells.
Scientists map trillions of human body cells to decode diseases
Though the cell map is still in its early days, it is already giving scientists a lot of valuable information. It could change the way we understand diseases that impact our cells, like cancer. Published in Nature magazine,
Human Cell Atlas achieves leap in the understanding of the human body
Researchers with the global Human Cell Atlas (HCA) consortium report significant progress in their quest for a better understanding of the cells of the human body in health and disease, with the publication on 20 November of a collection of more than 40 papers in Nature and other Nature Portfolio journals.
Scientists announce progress toward ambitious atlas of human cells
Scientists unveiled on Wednesday the first blueprint of human skeletal development as they make progress toward the goal of completing a biological atlas of every cell type in the body to better understand human health and diagnose and treat disease.
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.
Mapping human cells....all 37 trillion of them
Scientists are creating what's being called a Human Cell Atlas, which could transform our understanding of the human body. The BBC's health and science correspondent James Gallagher explains the ambitious plan and what it could mean for the treatment of a range of illnesses and medical conditions.
