When diseases damage our crucial organs, the best doctors can generally do is stop the harm from getting worse. But what if they could do more? After years of attempts, scientists are getting closer to tricking stem cells into repairing organs like the heart and lungs. If successful, this new research could completely change how doctors treat serious diseases. Learn more about these advancements at the link in bio.

Photo by @joelsartore | In the past decade, giant panda numbers have risen by more than 15 percent (the current population estimate is 1,800), but this rare bear isn’t out of the woods yet. Traditional threats to pandas, such as poaching, appear to be declining, but disturbances including mining, hydropower, and tourism are on the rise. Thankfully, conservation efforts to tackle these threats and increase the panda population are under way. And these efforts and global awareness won’t just protect pandas; they will benefit many other rare species as well, including the endangered takin, golden monkey, red panda, and crested ibis.
