How do biological cells join forces to form a structure? In her Ph.D. research, Daphne Nesenberend uses mathematics to show ...

A dish of living human neurons has been taught to play Doom. No, it isn’t conscious or watching the screen the way players do. But it is learning to respond to signals in a way that produces ...

In two new studies, scientists at Oregon Health & Science University have uncovered detailed blueprints of how certain molecular "gates" in human cells work—findings that could open doors to new ...

Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the first of its kind to be developed entirely from human cells. Not only can ...

More than 200 metabolic enzymes, many of which are normally tasked with producing energy in the mitochondria, are also found sitting directly on top of human DNA, according to a study published in ...

Researchers are learning how to refill the energy reserves of aging human cells, turning a long-standing metaphor about “cellular batteries” into a literal engineering challenge. By training healthy ...
