Just as life pulsates in big vibrant cities, it also prospers in crowded environments inside cells. The interior of cells is ...

Researchers at Duke University used CRISPR technologies to discover previously unannotated stretches of DNA in the "dark ...

They derive their energy from differences in the concentration of hydrogen ions across some of these membranes ...

A study published in Nature Communications describes how lymphatic endothelial cells assist in generating robust immune ...

Comparing a map of the neurons in a nematode worm - the connectome - with a map of how signals travel across those neurons ...

A study published today in Nature Communications describes how lymphatic endothelial cells assist in generating robust immune ...

When a key protein regulator dials down DNA repair mechanisms, our cells accumulate more mutations, which may cause us to age faster ...

Professor Adam Paré's research identifies the fundamental mechanisms that mold tissues during animal development. On Wednesday, he will discuss epithelial remodeling during development.

The award will allow researchers to investigate how physical forces influence the way cells move, grow, divide and respond to their surroundings, particularly in the context of diseases like cancer.

For immune cells, the actin cytoskeleton is more than a structural scaffold. Immune cells can migrate to sites of infection or form precise, short-lived contacts with other cells, by constantly ...
