Fifty years since its discovery, scientists have finally worked out how a molecular machine found in mitochondria allows us ...

During morphogenesis—the process by which living organisms take shape—cells collectively position themselves in specific ways ...

D printing skin, bone, and even working organs could change transplant medicine and medical research — but how, exactly, does ...

Our immune systems weaken as we get older, making fewer cells that fight infection and help us recover from illness and injury. Scientists aren't completely sure why. They may have a better idea now, ...

Scientists have discovered how aging blood stem cells acquire mutations that give them a growth edge, creating fertile ground for the development of clonol hematopoiesis, a condition that dramatically ...

In a breakthrough with promising real-world applications, a team of Rutgers biophysicists, bioengineers, and plant biologists ...

New research shows Glycolysis -- the process of converting sugar into energy -- plays a key role in early development. More than fuel, Glycolysis doesn't just power cells -- it helps steer them toward ...
