researchers get an updated look at the Human Cell Atlas

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.
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.
A ‘Wikipedia for cells’: researchers get an updated look at the Human Cell Atlas, and it’s remarkable
Coming less than a decade after its launch, the studies emerging from the global project are a major achievement. Funders should sign up for the long haul.
Scientists Create First Draft of Human 'Cell Atlas' for Disease Research
New advances allow scientists to study DNA, RNA, and gene activity in individual cells rather than in bulk tissue samples.
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.
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.
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 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.
