A new study published today in the journal Conservation Biology has found that songbirds modify their migration patterns when migrating through the vast agricultural landscape of the Midwest known as the "Corn Belt" in similar ways when crossing natural barriers like the Gulf of Mexico.

Advances in human stem cell-derived disease models have the potential to augment our predictive power for the efficacy and safety of new drugs. This technology, which complements existing approaches, is poised to reduce R&D costs and accelerate the development of new therapies for patients.

The International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) has assembled an international consortium of cross-sector thought leaders from industry, academia, and regulatory science to enable the widespread, responsible adoption.
