An unprecedented international effort to decode how cells manage the transport of chemical substances has culminated in four ...

If DNA bridges persist between chromosomes during cell division, chromosomes are abnormally segregated, leading to genetic ...

Sterols are among the most abundant lipids in eukaryotic cells, yet are synthesized through notoriously long, complex metabolic pathways. Researchers have used a novel approach to show how they ...

Researchers have shown in mice that brain cells known as astrocytes are required for a signaling chemical called norepinephrine to modify brain activity, changing the textbook understanding that ...

Discover how Bruker is advancing live single-cell functional analysis, helping to accelerate breakthroughs in immunology and ...

A 75-person team at Seattle's Allen Institute is embarking on a 10-year project called CellScapes to devise a mathematical ...

They used a variety of tools to study how sensations like heat and touch are transmitted to the brain, by activating different cells in mice. "To develop better treatments for pain, it's critical that ...

Completion of undergraduate junior level courses in Biochemistry and at least one of the following: Genetics, Molecular Biology, or Cell Biology no later than the Spring semester prior to entry in the ...

Researchers have long sought to understand the biological mechanisms that underlie learning. We know that the brain creates links and networks among neurons as we learn and form memories. Synaptic ...

Cells must constantly respond and adapt to changes in their environment, such as temperature fluctuations and mechanical stress. These responses include cell growth and migration (Rice et al., 2020; ...
