A Japanese research team has demonstrated in rat experiments that stem cells from human primary tooth pulp may help treat ...

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

Restoring natural vocal cord vibrations may reduce aggressive cancer activity, offering new clues about how laryngeal cancer develops.

Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) has spent the past decade maturing into a foundational technology. Over that time, the technology has both laid the foundation for building cell atlases and allowed ...

The development of humans and other animals unfolds gradually over time, with cells taking on specific roles and functions via a process called cell fate determination. The fate of individual cells, ...

A new technology called PULSE (Precise Ultrasonic Liquid Sample Ejection) is set to redefine the field of single-cell research. By harnessing ultrasonic waves, PULSE offers a highly precise, automated ...

Studying gene expression in a cancer patient's cells can help clinical biologists understand the cancer's origin and predict the success of different treatments. But cells are complex and contain many ...

In this Innovation Spotlight, Treutlein shares her excitement of using organoids to model the human brain, harnessing AI to accelerate laboratory discoveries, and discusses how massive-scale ...

In a proof-of-concept experiment, scientists demonstrated that you can create and fertilize human eggs in the lab using sperm, genes from skin cells, and the "shells" of existing egg cells. When you ...

Conventional PCR systems require users to set a predetermined number of cycles based on assay- and sample-specific factors. When performing single-cell sequencing experiments, this requires knowledge ...
