University of Cambridge scientists have used human stem cells to create three-dimensional embryo-like structures that ...

Researchers have developed artificial cell-like structures using inorganic matter that autonomously ingest, process, and push out material - recreating an essential function of living cells. Their ...

Even in an environment as seemingly simple as a drop of water, bacteria can organize themselves into complex patterns or ...

In a recent study published in Science Advances, a group of researchers assessed whether dendritic spine head diameter in the temporal cortex is a better predictor of episodic memory performance in ...

When cancer cells are physically squeezed, they mount an instant, high-energy defense by rushing mitochondria to the cell ...

Researchers in the cancer nanomedicine community debate whether use of tiny structures, called nanoparticles, can best deliver drug therapy to tumors passively -- allowing the nanoparticles to diffuse ...

Tumors are not a comfortable place to live: oxygen deficiency, nutrient scarcity, and the accumulation of sometimes harmful ...

In experiments with mouse models of breast, pancreatic, and muscle cancers, researchers at Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital report new evidence that a novel means of boosting the natural immune ...
