One of the most widely accepted models for how cells remember their identity may be incorrect. This is shown in a new study ...

Scientists are exploring ways to mimic the origins of human life without two fundamental components: sperm and egg. They are coaxing clusters of stem cells – programmable cells that can transform into ...

LaBonne is president of the Society for Developmental Biology and the Erastus Otis Haven professor of molecular biosciences at Northwestern University. Imagine a world without lifesaving medicines, ...

Every multicellular organism, from tiny worms to humans, elephants, and whales, needs a way for their cells to connect with each other to form tissues, organs, and organize their overall body plan.

As 2025 comes to a close, the editors at The Scientist asked researchers to reflect on the biggest breakthroughs in cell biology this year. They named advances in everything from embryo models for ...

Research and drug discovery are undergoing a transformation, driven by the rise of 3D cell culture models that better replicate human biology. Unlike traditional 2D cultures and animal models, which ...

3D cell models like spheroids and organoids are transforming the way we study complex biological processes—but they come with challenges. To meet this need, Sartorius has introduced the Incucyte ® CX3 ...

French artificial intelligence startup Bioptomus, pioneers of the biology research model family H-Optomus, today announced the availability of the company’s next-gen clinical biology AI model, ...

Effective models could unlock some of what is still unknown in biology and help your doctor find the right treatment. Jon covers artificial intelligence. He previously led CNET's home energy and ...

In the same vein as weather forecast models that predict developing storms, researchers have now developed a method to predict the cell activity in tissues over time. The new software combines ...
