J ohn Moult remembers the time he was floored by an algorithm. Moult, one of the organizers of the Critical Assessment of Protein Structure Prediction (CASP) competitions and a computational biologist ...

Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little “organs” inside cells that form compartments with individual functions. For example, ...

Scientists are exploring ways to mimic the origins of human life without two fundamental components: sperm and egg. They are coaxing clusters of stem cells – programmable cells that can transform into ...

This past year, we explored a lot of new cell biology research—from cancer to plants to microbes, and more! It’s hard to believe what can fit in a year. Yet as we say goodbye to 2025, we want to take ...

The lab has developed ultra-small DNA nanodevices that can function inside living cells, illuminating biological processes.

Scientists have transformed enigmatic cell structures, called vaults, into storage units for messenger-RNA molecules made in ...

Many winners of the annual Lasker Awards have gone on to win a Nobel Prize in medicine or other fields. Lucy Shapiro of Stanford University was honored for her 55-year career investigating how ...

There are hundreds of cell types in the human body, each with a specific role spelled out in their DNA. In theory, all it ...

For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process can lead to cell death or diseases like cancer. A new study has shown how ...

The human cell is a miserable thing to study. Tens of trillions of them exist in the body, forming an enormous and intricate network that governs every disease and metabolic process. Each cell in that ...

SYDNEY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Inventia Life Science, an innovator in 3D cell culture technologies, announces the launch of RASTRUM™ Allegro, a groundbreaking advancement in 3D cell culture technology ...

Allan Albig receives funding from the National Institute of Health. Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little “organs” inside ...
