New research tracks how cells prepare gene regulatory decisions that will define their fate during the earliest stages of ...

An illustration of multicolored tangle of threads within a small black sphere. A 3D illustration shows DNA packaged into the nucleus, scientists with the 4D Nucleome project are now building accurate ...

In a major leap forward for genetic and biomedical research, two scientists at the University of Missouri have developed a powerful new artificial intelligence tool that can predict the 3D shape of ...

A new organelle has been discovered in human cells — and scientists call it a "hemifusome." Like the full-size organs in our bodies, the organelles within cells are specialized structures that carry ...

We’ve come a long way from the Vacanti mouse. Back in the mid-90s, Charles Vacanti and other researchers experimented with cartilage regeneration and, with the help of a biodegradable mold and bovine ...

Volumetric 3D printing can create full objects in seconds, but wasted light has held it back. An EPFL team now redirects laser energy far more efficiently, producing larger, cleaner, cell-filled ...

Many promising therapies fail because preclinical models do not fully capture the complexity of the human heart. A new review ...

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes are the body's specialized "killer" cells, precisely eliminating infected or cancerous cells. Their action relies on a specialized exchange zone called the "immune synapse," ...

A team of international scientists has made a major leap forward in diabetes research by successfully 3D printing functional human islets using a novel bioink. Presented today at the ESOT Congress ...
