Forkhead BioTherapeutics is a spin-off from Columbia University in New York City.

You can’t live without insulin. When people with type 1 diabetes lose their ability to produce this hormone, they need to inject synthetic insulin multiple times a day and closely monitor their blood sugar levels. Managing the disease is difficult, and people with diabetes are at high...

A Simpler Twist of Fate

March 2, 2019

Until the day it dies, a cell that has become a skin cell remains a skin cell — or so scientists used to think. Over the past decade, it has become clear that cel- lular identity is not written in stone but can be rewritten by activating specific genetic pro- grams. Today, the field of regenerative medi- cine faces a question: should this rewriting take...
