How do biological cells join forces to form a structure? In her Ph.D. research, Daphne Nesenberend uses mathematics to show ...

Cells in the body have to move around in order to do their jobs. During development, for instance, cells are distributed to create and grow tissue. And in the event of an immune response, different ...

When you were first conceived, you were a single cell. From this basic fact, we can extrapolate a few things, most especially that all the cells that make up your body today came (indirectly) from ...

How does a single cell reliably build one of the most complex structures known in nature? New research suggests the answer may not depend solely on chemical signals, as long assumed.

What researchers know of human cells is pieced together like a scrapbook full of snapshots: division here, fertilization there, with maybe a bit of differentiation in between. While scientists know ...

The cells in your body are following an incredibly complex roadmap.

Orthopedic non-invasive stem cell therapy regenerates damaged tissue rather than just improving symptoms. Autologous stem cell therapy uses cells from your own body, minimizing rejection risks.

Up until recently, habituation -- a simple form of learning -- was deemed the exclusive domain of complex organisms with brains and nervous systems, such as worms, insects, birds, and mammals. But a ...

Mitochondria are essential for cell survival, repair, and adaptation. Not only do they generate most of the energy needed during a cell's life, but they also regulate cell death, calcium balance, and ...
