Nucleotide synthesis—the production of the basic components of DNA and RNA—is essential for cell growth and division. In most ...

In a recent perspective article published in the journal Nature Communications, over 30 scientists from around the world discussed the action plans and principles of the global scientific initiative ...

Meanwhile, medical research has changed. We can now study human disease using patient-derived cells, human organoids, advanced imaging and computational tools that reveal mechanisms we could not see ...

“For many cell-based therapies, progress comes from connecting the right pieces at the right moment,” Klein said. “When biology, computation, and the right support come together, you can start to move ...

Scientists have uncovered a direct molecular mechanism by which gut bacteria inject proteins into human cells, reshaping immune responses and potentially driving inflammatory disease. Scientists have ...

King's College London researchers have created a unique collection of human stem cell models that could help to uncover why ...

Scientists are exploring ways to mimic the origins of human life without two fundamental components: sperm and egg. They are coaxing clusters of stem cells – programmable cells that can transform into ...

In recent years, the field of stem cell and developmental biology has seen remarkable breakthroughs that have deepened our understanding of how organisms grow, age and regenerate, with major ...

Virtual biology: As we build high-fidelity digital representations of molecules, genomes, cells, and living systems, we'll increasingly be able to ask scientific questions digitally - conducting ...

The human cell is a miserable thing to study. Tens of trillions of them exist in the body, forming an enormous and intricate network that governs every disease and metabolic process. Each cell in that ...

For the modern technology leader, the quest for peak performance has traditionally been a matter of chemistry, an endless ...
