At the heart of our cells, a previously unknown structure has just been identified, shedding new light on essential biological mechanisms. This discovery could transform our understanding of ...

Where the heck did all those structures inside complex cells come from? There are competing theories about the origin of the nucleus and endoplasmic reticulum.

Scientists has illuminated the functions of mysterious structures in cells called 'nuclear speckles,' showing that they can work in partnership with a key protein to enhance the ...

Researchers construct an embryo-like structure from human stem cells, resulting in a new way to study the earliest stages of development.

A new class of drugs combining artificial DNA structures with antibodies could make immunotherapies more targeted—all you have to do is fold.

When a wound on the skin creates a gap, the epithelial cells of the skin, surrounding the wound, move in a concerted fashion to close this gap. The boundaries of these gaps can have different ...
