In recent years, scientists have developed methods to measure a cell's transcriptome, or all the RNA produced by a cell, to ...

Harvard researchers have unveiled a new way to map the molecular activity in complex tissues that can reveal which specific ...

Ken Paxton, the Texas attorney general, makes six-figure income from a cellphone tower on the grounds of a hospital where he was a board member. By Lauren McGaughy Reporting from Austin and Frisco, ...

Every year, millions of people sustain the kind of joint injury — a torn ligament, a fractured ankle, a wrenched knee — that feels like an acute event and resolves that way, too: swelling, pain, then ...

DZNE researchers have uncovered a mechanism that determines why a neuron usually forms a single, long extension called an "axon"—a phenomenon that is fundamental to how our brain functions. Contrary ...

Virtual cell models that enable the prediction of cell behavior across scales and biological contexts are rapidly emerging at the forefront of drug discovery. Tom Sercu, PhD, vice president of AI and ...

Scientists say they have built a cell from scratch for the first time that can feed, grow and replicate like a natural cell. This breakthrough in synthetic biology could usher in an era of ...

For the very first time, biologists packed nonliving components into a cell-like membrane, piece by piece, and witnessed the bag of molecules start to behave like life. The lab-made synthetic cell ...

Scientists have long dreamed of discovering the alchemy by which chemicals can be turned into life. On Wednesday, a team at the University of Minnesota announced that it had taken a major step toward ...

How does a single cell build a brain with billions of precisely organized neurons? Researchers suggest that brain cells use their lineage—their cellular family tree—as a kind of positional map. Cells ...
