With today's advanced microscopes, scientists can capture videos of entire embryos developing in real time. But there's a catch: turning those breathtaking images into clean, accurate trajectories of ...

Imagine watching an embryo form in real time, each cell dividing, moving, and finding its place. Today’s advanced microscopes can capture these frames—but turning them into accurate, usable maps of ...

Studying cell migration is vital because it plays a crucial role in many biological processes, including immune response, wound healing, and cancer metastasis. Understanding how cells move and behave ...

Complex sugar-protein molecules that sense external messages to help a cell grow or respond to its environment can now be tracked and analyzed, using a Nobel Prize-winning chemistry technique. A ...

A team led by Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) developed a computational method to improve techniques to track brain cell development over time. By studying neurons and their dynamics in brain ...

Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have found that the motion of unlabeled cells can be used to tell whether they are cancerous or healthy. They observed malignant fibrosarcoma cells and ...

For the first time, researchers have visualized in vivo the precise timing and location of active lignin deposition in developing pear cells. This allowed them to trace how isolated cells begin ...

Ars Technica has been separating the signal from the noise for over 25 years. With our unique combination of technical savvy and wide-ranging interest in the technological arts and sciences, Ars is ...
