Scientists have created a cell from scratch and believe they can engineer it, which would be a medical phenomenon.

A framework for analyzing single-cell genomics data, in which geometrical properties are harnessed to obtain insights on cellular diversity, including precise clustering, clear visualizations, and ...

The human-made cells show many hallmarks of life, but they can't make all their necessary internal structures or divide for ...

Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered that one of the body's most fundamental biological processes—how red blood ...

Scientists at the University of Minnesota say they've made the first synthetic cell that can complete a life cycle, a major ...

Researchers led by developmental biologist Kathy Niakan at the University of Cambridge have used base editing in human embryos to learn more about human embryonic development. By deactivating a gene ...

Megan covers the intersection of science and society. How is biomedical research funded? Who benefits? And how do new technologies reflect and shape our values? You can reach Megan on Signal at ...

Damaged DNA can escape from one human cell and infiltrate another. Like prisoners tunneling out of jail, this DNA travels via tubelike structures between neighboring cells, scientists report May 19 in ...

Scientists have uncovered a hidden “sugar code” on the surface of human cells that could transform how diseases are detected. Using an advanced imaging technique called Glycan Atlasing, researchers at ...

Scientists at Children's Medical Center Research Institute at UT Southwestern (CRI) have discovered that large pieces of DNA can transfer directly between human cells, and the DNA can persist and ...

The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which is the cause of AIDS, is a master of deception, using just nine genes to hijack the complex cellular machinery of the human body. Yet, even after decades ...
