Biology Biologists Uncover Previously Unknown Structure Hiding Inside Human Cells The never-before-seen organelle serves as a recycling center for cellular cargo, evidence suggests.

Regev compared scientific knowledge of cell biology before the Human Cell Atlas initiative with a “15 th century map.” “Now, years later, the resolution of the map is a lot higher,” she said.

Scientists with the Human Cell Atlas (HCA), an international research consortium, have profiled 100 million cells from more than 10,000 people around the world.

The DNA of human cells consists of a sequence of about 3.1 billion building blocks. Cells go to great lengths to maintain the integrity of this vast store of information.

Global Collaboration: The Human Cell Atlas (HCA) is a worldwide consortium involving over 3,000 scientists from 99 countries, working together to map every cell type in the human body..
