Electricity has always been central to how life works, from the firing of neurons to the beating of the heart, but new ...

Neoantigens are unique markers that distinguish only cancer cells. By adding B cell reactivity, cancer vaccines can move ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and AlveoliX have developed the first human 'lung-on-chip' model using stem cells ...

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 ...

The constant, energy-driven motion inside living cells may generate electricity in a way no one fully recognized before.

Randomness inside cells can decide whether a cancer returns after chemotherapy or whether an infection survives antibiotics.

In the battle against type 1 diabetes (T1D), one researcher at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) is leading a ...

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 ...

A team at Kobe University has created a game-changing resource for autism research: 63 mouse embryonic stem cell lines, each carrying a genetic mutation strongly associated with the disorder. By ...

Biology has always been an unruly science. Cells divide when they want to. Genes switch on and off like temperamental lights.
