Researchers succeeded in creating cells whose proliferation can be controlled. The technique enables new and safe cell therapies. Cell therapies could help in the treatment of hereditary diseases, ...

For people with two hands, one is usually dominant. On a molecular level, life takes this to the extreme. All of the DNA in earthly living things... What are 'mirror cells' and why do some scientists ...

Studying the cell is a difficult and time-consuming process, but scientists have pinpointed generative AI as a potential way to make it easier. The idea is to develop an AI virtual cell that would ...

Although the researchers did not create an entire cell that could function without a crucial building block, the findings ...

Researchers have developed a new organoid that mimics the human fetal pancreas, offering a clearer view of its early development. The researchers were able to recreate a complete structure that ...

Cells constantly shift and transform, triggering the complex choreography that shapes living organisms. Whether dividing into new cells or sculpting an embryo, these tiny movements rely on chemical ...

Grid cells are a class of specialized neurons in a brain region called the entorhinal cortex, which is known to support spatial navigation and some memory processes. Past neuroscience studies have ...

Established in 2016, the Human Cell Atlas (HCA) consortium set out to create a comprehensive biological map of cells within the human body. Now progressing into a data integration phase, the HCA is ...
