Thanks to a mouse watching clips from “The Matrix,” scientists have created the largest functional map of a brain to date.

Researchers have developed a method to extract living cells from feces that they say could help conservationists better ...

Neuroscientists have produced the largest wiring diagram and functional map of a mammalian brain to date using tissue from a ...

Researchers say they have mapped more than 200,000 cells in a cubic millimeter of brain tissue and have traced how they're ...

For biologists, seeing is believing. But sometimes biologists have a hard time seeing. One particularly vexing challenge is ...

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

From a tiny sample of tissue no larger than a grain of sand, scientists have come within reach of a goal once thought unattainable: building a complete functional wiring diagram of a portion ... the ...

When animals defecate, they shed living cells from their intestines, and these can be found on the outside of the dung, says Williams, a professor of fertility and reproductive health. Living ...

This important study shows that nutrient stress emanating from the microenvironment induces metabolic vulnerabilities in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Using a combination of cell-based and ...

By mapping the subcellular architecture and protein interactions within cells, researchers can better understand how mutations contribute to pediatric cancers and other conditions.

Plant vs Animal Cells: Stored Energy Both plant and animal cells store energy and both use glucose as their main form of energy. However, they store it in different forms. Animal cells store ...
