For years, biomolecular condensates were thought to be simple, liquid-like droplets with little internal organization. New ...

How do biological cells join forces to form a structure? In her Ph.D. research, Daphne Nesenberend uses mathematics to show how forces and cooperation between cells create structure—and how ...

New experimental results have cast doubt on earlier proposals suggesting that spherical, cell-like membranes could form in ...

Scientists have successfully connected living human brain cells to a computer system and taught them to interact with the classic video game DOOM. The strange experiment marks a new step toward ...

Novel developments also focus on quick and high-speed AFM to improve temporal resolution. 2 The combination of AFM with optical microscopy has expanded the number of possible applications, ...

The computer vision scientist Greg Johnson is building systems that can recognize organelles on sight and show the dynamics of living cells more clearly than microscopy can. Your high school biology ...

Researchers in the cancer nanomedicine community debate whether use of tiny structures, called nanoparticles, can best deliver drug therapy to tumors passively -- allowing the nanoparticles to diffuse ...
