Advancements in HeLa Cell Culture Techniques and Their Implications for Future Research
HeLa cells, derived from the cervical cancer cells of Henrietta Lacks in 1951, have been a cornerstone of biomedical research for decades. These immortalised cells have contributed to numerous scientific breakthroughs, including the development of the polio vaccine and the discovery of telomerase. As cell culture techniques continue to evolve, HeLa cells remain a…
