Tap into the extraordinary tale of evolution in this cosmic clicker game! Once upon a time, over 4.5 billion years ago, there was no life in the Solar System. And then, almost in the blink of an ...

Dysfunctions of the tiny cell processes (primary cilia*) of the pancreatic beta cells could be a cause of type 2 diabetes.

For years, scientists have thought that TGF-Beta ... in our cells. "The field has historically focused on stabilizing these ...

Model used to create a cellular 'hologram' of a mouse embryo could be used to visualize development in any species.

All cells rely on cell signaling to detect and respond ... Each individual integrin consists of two main parts: an alpha subunit and a beta subunit. Variation in the alpha and beta subunits ...

with added imaging features enabling single cell image acquisitions and cell sorting based on phenotypes. We collaborated with the imaging facility at the University of York to access BD ...

A Japanese team has developed a technique to insert chloroplasts isolated from algae into animal cells, a feat that could ...

This year’s first place went to Bruno Cisterna and Eric Vitriol for their image of tumor cells in the brain of a mouse, which highlighted disruptions in the cells’ cytoskeleton. The team’s ...

This year’s top prize went to Bruno Cisterna, who (assisted by Eric Vitriol) captured a detailed image of the structural framework of neuronal cells. Differentiated mouse brain tumor cells ...

They form synapse-like structures that pinch neighboring cells. Further analyses of the image data indicated that the primary cilia of the beta cells also interact with cells of the nervous tissue.
