Using artificial intelligence, engineers at the University of California San Diego have developed a new way to watch the ...

New fluorescent dyes allow scientists to watch cancer activity inside living cells in real time, opening new possibilities ...

A new study co-led by an Oregon Health & Science University researcher describes a breakthrough in microscopy tools that ...

Macrophages, the immune system’s front-line scavenger cells, do more than simply digest dead cells. A new study published in Nature Communications shows they actively extract nuclear DNA from dying ...

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. (Nanowerk ...

A DNA nano-harvester stays on its track inside tumor cells, measuring cancer aggressiveness by detecting a key microRNA biomarker. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Detecting a cancer-linked microRNA inside a ...

Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University have identified a previously unknown system inside cells that works like ...

Electricity has always been central to how life works, from the firing of neurons to the beating of the heart, but new research suggests cells may be generating power in ways biologists had not ...

Figure | Working principle of Interferometric Image Scanning Microscopy (iISM). (a) Schematic of the iISM microscope and interferometric PSF detection. (b) iISM with adaptive pixel-reassignment (APR) ...

Ribosomes, the cell's protein-making factories, consume large amounts of energy as they build the proteins that keep cells alive and functioning. When cells experience stress—such as lack of nutrients ...
