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

Taking images of tiny structures within cells is tricky business. One technique, cryogenic electron tomography (cryoET), shoots electrons through a frozen sample. The images formed by the electrons ...

Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...

Scientists suggest increasing what is understood about exocytosis could one day inform many fields of applied science.

Scientists uncover the tiny machine that delivers essential molecular packages to the cell surface, a fundamental activity ...

Custom polymer structures can now be 3D printed inside living cells using laser-based fabrication, opening paths to intracellular sensors, cell tracking tags, and embedded microlasers.

The discovery that tissues use electricity to expel unhealthy cells is part of a surge of renewed interest in the currents ...

Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires precise coordination; otherwise, the embryo could develop serious complications ...
