Vaults are mysterious cellular structures that can be genetically engineered to store information about a cell’s history.

Human cells are extremely small and tightly packed – at about 20 micrometers across, ...

After centuries of mapping the human body in ever-finer detail, scientists are still making discoveries. Here we are, in 2025, and a previously unknown cellular structure that could be vital to our ...

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.

Researchers find obelisks, mysterious RNA molecules in human bacteria that challenge our understanding of viruses and ...

For the first time, clumps of human cells called organoids were fully integrated with the brains of rats—and influenced their behavior.

This strange microscopic structure may whisper ancient evolutionary secrets.

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave. Researchers have now mapped this hidden architecture in unprecedented detail, showing ...

One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published in Nature. Chromosomes are thread-like structures that carry a cell's ...

Researchers at Colorado State University have determined how to use artificial intelligence to modify antibodies so they act ...

The lab has developed ultra-small DNA nanodevices that can function inside living cells, illuminating biological processes.

The study found that flu viruses need bigger bulges on the cell’s surface to get inside. These bulges are made from actin, a protein that helps shape the cell, and they weren’t stopped by certain ...
