MIT scientists used light to control how a starfish egg cell jiggles and moves during its earliest stage of development.

The researchers observed that light activated the enzyme, causing predictable cell movements. For example, specific light ...

Engineered starfish oocytes shape-shift in response to light, may enable the design of synthetic, light-activated cells for ...

With the long-term goal of creating living cells from non-living components, scientists in the field of synthetic biology work with RNA origami. This tool uses the multifunctionality of the natural ...

Itay&Beyond grows brain tissue from patient urine stem cells to test neurological drugs, training the chips via video games ...

MIT scientists have discovered a way to control the movements of starfish cells using light, which could have biomedical applications.

Researchers use light stimuli to shape cells and develop a model that explains the mechanisms – with implications for synthetic biology.

It’s important to note that researchers are likely at least 10 to 30 years away from creating mirror bacteria. On the timescale of a fast-moving field like synthetic biology, a decade is a very long ...

Ernexa Therapeutics embarks on new strategic direction, shifting the company’s focus from delivering a cell therapy platform to prioritizing ...
