Until now, studying the genetic processes in cells required destroying them—making it impossible to observe these processes ...

A subtle failure during cell division can set off dramatically different outcomes, according to new research exploring whole ...

Cells use a surprising “pearling” motion to evenly distribute mitochondrial DNA. This newly uncovered process may be key to ...

CANCERS ARE real biological cheats. Whereas most of the cells in a healthy animal’s body get along by following the same set of genetic rules, cancer cells shamelessly ignore them. Healthy cells, for ...

Every time a cell divides, it must copy its DNA with extraordinary precision. But this process is constantly challenged by ...

The sunlight-collecting organelles known as chloroplasts solve a packing problem: how to optimize photosynthesis without ...

Researchers at University College Dublin have discovered a previously unknown “courier system” that cells use to deliver coherent biological messages between each other, opening new possibilities for ...

Stuart Orkin and Swee Lay Thein shared a Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences for their research on genetic causes of sickle ...

NYBCe and CZ Biohub will derive iPSC lines from cord blood's immune cells, creating shared, broadly compatible resources for cell therapy, disease modelling, and AI-driven drug development.

In a study published in Cell Reports, biomedical scientist Xuecai Ge at the University of California, Riverside and her team ...
