Can the bend of a banana give us insight into cancer? What does the shape of a rice grain have to do with infertility? The ...

How do biological cells join forces to form a structure? In her Ph.D. research, Daphne Nesenberend uses mathematics to show ...

How does a single cell reliably build one of the most complex structures known in nature? New research suggests the answer ...

Abstract: In this article, we present an efficient implementation of the spectral-domain method of moments (SD-MoM) for the analysis of periodic multilayered structures in the case where asymmetric ...

1)CellGO is able to predict cell type-specific pathways activated by a single gene. 2)CellGO is able to generate a four-level hierarchy of biological insights for a gene set: 1.CellGO can select cell ...

Researchers have uncovered a shared brain cell breakdown mechanism behind Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, revealing how two different proteins can disrupt neurons in the same devastating way.

Stem cells are precursors of a variety of different cells: They can turn into anything from blood to bone to muscle. Human blood stem cells, known as hematopoietic stem cells, are the forerunners of ...

Scientists have long used fluorescent dyes—which emit light—to research cell structures and activities. By attaching fluorescent molecules to a protein, for example, scientists can take images of it ...

Bispecific T cell engagers (TcEs) are immunotherapeutic drugs that trigger the destruction of cancer cells by linking T cells to cancer cells through specific surface molecules (antigens). We designed ...

White blood cells help your body fight inflammation and infections. A high or low white blood cell count may be associated with a number of short-term or long-term health conditions. White blood cells ...

Despite clinical and scientific advancements, heart failure is the major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Both mitochondrial dysfunction and inflammation contribute to the development and ...

A subset of more than 1,000 neurons, representing just a snapshot of the complexity mapped within a cubic millimeter of mouse brain tissue Allen Institute In 1979, biologist Francis Crick claimed it ...
