For years, biomolecular condensates were thought to be simple, liquid-like droplets with little internal organization. New research overturns that view, revealing that some condensates are built from ...
MBL, WOODS HOLE, MA -- Scientists have discovered that cells use a very simple phase transition -- similar to water vapor condensing into dew -- to assemble and localize subcellular structures that ...
Volvox parent spheroid: Numerous individual cells can be seen across the entire surface as magenta-colored dots. Developing daughter spheroids appear as a few larger clusters with very small dots. The ...
Scientists at Feinberg are reshaping scientific understanding of the cell's tiniest components—structures once thought to be static, now revealed to be dynamic engines of cellular life. As they probe ...
