These miniature models -; known as human immune organoids -; mimic the real-life environment where immune cells learn to recognize and attack harmful invaders and respond to vaccines. Not only are ...

By studying these organoids, scientists hope to learn about the impact of microgravity on human heart tissue ... That means ...

ST. LOUIS — All morning, nurses had been coming in, taking vitals, offering blankets, pressing buttons to silence alarms. It ...

Scientists have successfully immortalized lip cells, creating a clinically relevant lab model that enables testing of new ...

Intravital microscopy (IVM) enables live imaging of animals at single-cell level, offering essential insights into cancer progression. This technique allows for the observation of single-cell ...

Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little “organs” inside cells that form compartments with individual functions.

Relying less on animal testing for new drugs and more on lab-made “organoids” designed to mimic the functions of human organs ...

You probably learned about organelles, those little “organs” inside cells that form compartments with individual functions. For example, mitochondria produce energy, lysosomes recycle waste and the ...

Yizhi “Patrick” Cai is coordinating a global effort to write a complete synthetic yeast genome. If he succeeds, the resulting cell will be the artificial life most closely related to humans to date.

UC Davis researchers have identified new cell clusters in the amygdala that could hold keys to treating anxiety and depression. Effective treatment for anxiety, depression, and other emotional ...

We use our lips to talk, eat, drink, and breathe; they signal our emotions, health, and aesthetic beauty. It takes a complex ...
