Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in ...

One of the most fundamental processes in all of biology is the spontaneous organization of cells into clusters that divide and eventually turn into shapes—be they organs, wings or limbs. Subscribe to ...

Scientists have long known that cellular membranes vary in thickness, but measuring those differences inside actual cells has ...

Inside cells, RNAs and proteins form tiny, liquid-like droplets called biomolecular condensates. These droplets are essential for organizing cellular life, yet why some RNAs cluster more readily than ...

An international group of researchers led by Pompeu Fabra University has discovered the nanomachine that controls ...

Spatial proteomics enables scientists to investigate protein organization at the subcellular, cellular, and tissue levels, including in pathological contexts. Using technologies that help researchers ...

Findings from the Living Brain Project reveal how senescence processes involved in early brain development may also shape brain aging ...

Like a chest of drawers, our cells are organised into “compartments” where specific functions are carried out. There are two main types of compartments in cells. Some are enclosed by membranes — for ...

A tiny elephant establishes a new stomping ground for 3-D printing: inside cells. For the first time, scientists have 3-D printed objects within living cells, including a 10-micrometer long elephant ...
