What do healthy bone marrow cells in children look like? For the first time, researchers have mapped this out. Scientists at the Princess Máxima Center examined nearly 91,000 individual bone marrow cells from healthy children. Their findings show that children's bone marrow is clearly structured differently from that of adults. The researchers compiled the data into an overview, an atlas, so that other researchers can also use it.
