What will you explore in your GGGH project? Our main goal is to begin deciphering the molecular communication between bacteria (and the small molecules they secrete) and host cells in the small ...

Researchers from the Organoid group (formerly the Clevers group) have improved human small intestinal organoids – miniature versions of the small intestine. This will help them to better study the ...

Researchers have improved human small intestinal organoids -- miniature versions of the small intestine. This will help them to better study the functioning of the small intestine during health and ...

The intestines work by absorbing nutrients and vitamins. They are part of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Together, the small and large intestines run from the end of the stomach to the anus. In this ...

Through a collaboration between Cornell and the State University of Binghamton in February, scientists found that food grade nanoparticles may potentially have detrimental effects on the function and ...

The human small intestine is an essential organ that helps us absorb nutrients and vitamins from food. It is an average of 6 meters long and is covered with millions of villi that are separated by ...

In a recent study published in the journal Frontiers in Immunology, researchers investigate the impact of dietary antigens in regulating small intestinal tumors. Despite being the most common type of ...

The small and large intestines are a vital part of the human digestive system. The length of the small intestine is roughly 9–16 feet (ft), while the large intestine is shorter, measuring around 5 ft ...
