Researchers have developed a way to 3D print custom micrometer-sized structures directly into the interior of living cells.

Scientists mapping the human body at the cellular level keep running into the same surprise: beneath the apparent chaos of ...

Custom polymer structures can now be 3D printed inside living cells using laser-based fabrication, opening paths to intracellular sensors, cell tracking tags, and embedded microlasers.

A multicellular system isn’t a system just because it has many cells. The cells must be of different types. Indeed, a great many different cell types are needed. To distinguish as many cell types as ...

Researchers create a magnetic nanoscale system that reversibly switches groove and ridge structures to regulate stem cell adhesion and differentiation. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Tissue regeneration depends ...

Deep within the nucleus of every cell lies a structure smaller than a pinpoint that may hold the secret to aging. Scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine have discovered that the nucleolus, long known ...

Nature follows mathematical rules and creates repeating patterns across completely different organisms and environments.

A research group has revealed that the checkerboard-like arrangement of cells in the inner ear's organ of Corti is vital for hearing. The discovery gives a new insight into how hearing works from the ...
