Scientists at Feinberg are reshaping scientific understanding of the cell's tiniest components—structures once thought to be ...

Our bodies are made up of countless cells, and each one is enclosed by a thin layer called the cell membrane. This membrane ...

The cell nucleus is considered to be the control center of vital cellular processes, but its material properties continue to puzzle scientists. An international research team has now developed a new ...

Tiny tweaks in DNA folding can have big effects. A study from Umeå University shows that even the most subtle changes in ...

A new discovery inside your cells may change how scientists understand disease and design future treatments. Researchers have ...

After centuries of mapping the human body in ever-finer detail, scientists are still making discoveries. Here we are, in 2025, and a previously unknown cellular structure that could be vital to our ...

More than 1.5 billion years ago, a momentous thing happened: Two small, primitive cells became one. Perhaps more than any event—barring the origin of life itself—this merger radically changed the ...

A study has revealed the three-dimensional genomic structure of male germ cells and how this structure determines function. It represents a significant advance in our understanding of how the dynamics ...

Typically, in soft X-ray tomography, like in electron tomography, flat lattice structures are used as holders. When they are tilted, the thickness of the samples can change, making some cell ...

Bangkok — Scientists have developed human embryo-like structures without using sperm, an egg or fertilization, offering hope for research on miscarriage and birth defects but also raising fresh ...

Preserved brain cells have been found in the remains of a young man who died in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in A.D. 79. The brain cells' structure is still visible in a black, glassy material found ...
