Cell division is an essential process for all life on Earth, yet the exact mechanisms by which cells divide during early ...

One of the most well-studied cellular responses is how they react during times of stress, such as when the temperature gets ...

Researchers say the innovation, known as SmartEM, will speed scanning sevenfold and open the field of connectomics to a ...

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...

This is an important study on the sensory roles of Cerebrospinal fluid-contacting neurons (CBF-cn) in mammals. The authors identify PKD2L1 as the predominant pH-sensing channel CBF-cn and show how the ...

This important study combines optogenetic manipulations and wide-field imaging to show that the retrosplenial cortex controls behavioral responses to whisker deflection in a context-dependent manner.

When a pathogen like a dangerous virus invades the human body, it usually has to enter human cells to cause an illness. Influenza has to latch onto a receptor on the surface of a human cell so it can ...

A new study shows, for the first time, that cow cells can naturally become immortal—continuing to divide indefinitely without genetic modification or any abnormal transformation. This overturns ...

The Jackson Laboratory, a Maine-based nonprofit biomedical research institution with a major hub in Farmington, recently announced it has completed its acquisition of the New York Stem Cell Foundation ...

New integrated platform will transform early-stage research, equipping scientists worldwide to uncover disease mechanisms earlier and advance progress toward therapies for Alzheimer's, cancer, ...

The wallet in George Engelmayr’s hand looks unremarkable: tan, textured, a little stiff at the edges. The story behind it is anything but. It was grown in a North Carolina lab from the skin cells of a ...
