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

Advanced techniques are allowing scientists to witness the process where plant cells generate cellulose fibers.

"These cells co-develop together, just like they would in an actual embryo, and establish that history of being neighbors," ...

UCSC scientists have used CRISPR to develop programmable embryoids that can be used to study early embryo development and ...

In a groundbreaking study on the synthesis of cellulose -- a major constituent of all plant cell walls -- a team has captured images of the microscopic process of cell-wall building continuously over ...
