Scientists rebuilt human brain circuits in the lab and discovered that the thalamus acts as a central organizer of cortical wiring. The findings offer new insight into how brain networks form and why ...
In research that could shed light on the growth and formation of complex tissue architectures, Brown University engineers ...
This is a top-down cross-section of one of the 3D hollow spheres (lumenoids) that our cells can create. The different colors are for different proteins, which allows you to see some striking ...
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 ...
Cells are not immortal, and that is a good thing. After a certain number of divisions, many human cells stop multiplying for good. They enter a state called replicative senescence, where growth ceases ...
Researchers have detected microplastics in blood, placentas, and organs. A scientific review explains how they affect human biology.
Three Ohio State researchers earned the NAI fellow, the highest distinction awarded to inventors for their work in various fields. Dehua Pei, a professor in chemistry and biochemistry, was elected to ...
