Dissecting self-organizing protein systems step by step may help scientists design the process of biological pattern formation from minimal ingredients

The researchers specifically focused on a rotational motor dubbed V1 that functions as part of a pump that moves sodium ions across the membrane as a part of healthy cellular processes

A research team created a glassy carbon electrode as an alternative to the metal version, and new findings show it does not react to MRI scans, making it safer

Insect swarms have inspired roboticists to think that small robots may also be able to overcome their individual limitations by operating in a swarm

Göttingen researchers unravel fundamental communication processes in proteins

Inspired by the game of Pachinko, new approach uses microscopic wells lined with electrodes to analyze cells for cervical cancer

Each human cell contains approximately 2 meters of DNA, too small to be visible to the unaided eye, tightly packed into a teeny little nucleus

Ancient footprints help researchers date the switch from a crouched to more straight-legged gait

Researchers at the Rockefeller University and the Albert Einstein College of Medicine have identified a quirky biophysical mechanism that helps cells avoid data breaches

Findings are expected to lead to the development of novel functionalization methods for various biopolymer gels and elucidation of mechanical properties of biopolymer gels in living cells such as cytoskeletal gels
