Discover how CRISPR genome editing is revolutionizing medicine. Learn the science of Cas9, current clinical trials, and the future of gene editing.

A large-scale atlas of mouse brain cells has revealed that aging does not affect all brain cell types equally. Some cell populations show dramatic shifts in gene activity between youth and old age, ...

Before you ever set foot on a spacecraft bound for deep space, tiny replicas of your organs might make the journey first. Suspended in microgravity aboard a research mission, this organ-on-a-chip, or ...

RNA vaccines saved millions of lives during COVID-19 but have limitations like waning immunity and complex production. Scientists are now testing a new platform called DoriVac, which uses folded DNA ...

For decades, lab-grown cells have been studied in materials that don't reflect the softness and flexibility of human tissue.

For years, biomolecular condensates were thought to be simple, liquid-like droplets with little internal organization. New ...

A newly identified role for the neuronal MPS shows it controls nutrient uptake by acting as a gatekeeper. Its disruption ...

Cryosleep’ remains the preserve of science fiction, but researchers are getting closer to restoring brain function after deep freezing ...

A lack of vitamin B2 makes tumour cells more susceptible to a unique form of cell death. This was discovered by researchers at the Rudolf Virchow Centre at the University of Würzburg.

The challenges of connecting molecular changes to tissue structure and highlights the potential of multifractal frameworks to quantify complex biological patterns ...

A new light-controlled hydrogel developed at CU Boulder mimics the movement and flexibility of real tissue, giving scientists a more realistic way to study ...
