Scientists at EPFL have developed CenSpark, a fluorescent probe that makes centrioles and cilia visible inside living cells, ...
One of the biggest challenges in cancer research is understanding why some tumor cells become especially aggressive, invasive ...
Two landmark studies have advanced understanding of human cell biology, one unveiling a fluorescent probe for live imaging of centrioles and cilia, and another revealing how polyploid cancer cells ...
This past year, we explored a lot of new cell biology research—from cancer to plants to microbes, and more! It’s hard to believe what can fit in a year. Yet as we say goodbye to 2025, we want to take ...
Cancer cells that accumulate extra copies of their entire chromosome set can start behaving like immune cells, swallowing ...
In this discussion in GEN’s “The State of Multiomics and NGS” virtual summit, originally broadcast on April 23, 2025, Jonah Cool, PhD, Science Program Officer at CZI and Sarah Teichmann, PhD, Research ...
Researchers at Tulane University School of Medicine have discovered that if animal cells gain an extra set of chromosomes, a ...
As we age, stem cells responsible for maintaining our blood and immune systems gradually lose their resilience, but why this happens has remained unclear. A novel study from Japan and the US turns the ...
Cellular health plays a crucial role in your overall well-being. On average, the human body has between 30-40 trillion cells of various types and with various functions. The healthier your cells are, ...
Stem cells in most organisms typically take cues from adjacent cells. But new research from the Stowers Institute for Medical Research has found that stem cells in the freshwater planarian Schmidtea ...
