Quantum effects are no longer confined to ultra-cold chips and vacuum chambers. For the first time, researchers are deliberately engineering living cells so that they behave like quantum bits, hinting ...

T his past year, we explored a lot of new cell biology research—from cancer to plants to microbes, and more! It’s hard to ...

Why does cancer sometimes recur after chemotherapy? Why do some bacteria survive antibiotic treatment? In many cases, the answer appears to lie not in genetic differences, but in biological noise - ...

Researchers released a consensus statement with recommendations to update T cell nomenclature and improve communication ...

Immune cells called B cells make antibodies that fight off invading bacteria, viruses and other foreign substances. During ...

Researchers from Kyushu University have developed an innovative computational method, called ddHodge, that can reconstruct ...

Researchers have determined that condensates are electrically charged droplets that can induce voltage changes across the ...

Biologists have long treated cell membranes as passive barriers, thin skins that separate the chemistry of life from the ...

It may have fewer than many of the other sciences, but biology does have two dozen or so “rules”—broad generalizations about ...

“Expression tells us what cells do, but regulatory DNA tells us where they come from, how they develop, and which germ layer ...
