Growing replacement kidneys from stem cells | GeneInCell | 2026
Can we grow new kidneys from stem cells? In this episode, we explore how scientists are using pluripotent stem cells to create kidney organoids that mimic early kidney development. We discuss how these mini-organs help study kidney disease, test new drugs, and move us closer to future regenerative therapies for kidney failure.
Is Space Travel Safe For You? | GeneInCell | 2026
What really happens to your cells under stress, in space, and during space travel? In this episode, we zoom in on the physiological, cellular, and molecular levels to uncover how zero gravity affects them.
Growing Beating Human Hearts in a Dish | Heart Organoids | GeneInCell
What does it take to grow a beating human heart in the lab? This episode explores cardiac organoids—self-organizing heart tissues derived from human stem cells that contract, respond to drugs, and model human heart disease. We unpack how iPSCs are guided into cardiac lineages, how electrical and mechanical cues drive maturation, and why these beating mini-hearts are transforming drug safety testing, disease modeling, and the future of regenerative cardiology.
The AI Revolution in Healthcare: 2026 Innovation and Trends | GeneInCell | 2026
In this episode, we explore the AI revolution in healthcare and what 2026 could look like—from smarter diagnostics and personalized treatments to automation that reshapes clinical workflows. We break down the key innovations, emerging trends, and real-world impact of AI on patients, clinicians, and the healthcare system.
Engineering the Next Wave of Innovation with Synthetic Biology | GeneInCell | 2026
Synthetic biology is turning cells into programmable factories, sensors, and therapies. In this episode, we explore how DNA can be engineered like code to build smarter medicines, sustainable biomaterials, and living devices—and what it will take to move these innovations from the lab to the real world.
