Andrew T. Lombardo, PhD, assistant professor of biochemistry, has received a $1.9 million National Institutes of Health grant to study cell polarity signaling.

A new type of sensor may soon change how doctors understand what’s happening inside the human body. Scientists at Stanford University have created a biosensor that works continuously in live blood ...

Plasma membranes from insect midgut cells are separated into apical and basolateral domains. The apical domain is usually modified into microvilli with a molecular structure similar to other animals.

The SENSBIT sensor, inspired by intestinal architecture, offers long-term stability for in vivo blood monitoring, overcoming ...

Water makes up around 60% of the human body. More than half of this water sloshes around inside the cells that make up organs ...

A research group has developed a technology for mass-producing uniform artificial cells (lipid bilayer vesicles) with ...

Fuel cells powered with the metal could provide a new source of electric power that's far more energy-dense than lithium-ion batteries. A new type of fuel cell that runs on sodium metal could one ...

An accidental discovery in an astronomy show offers researchers a new clue about the mysterious Oort Cloud, a large expanse of icy bodies revolving around the sun.

Abstract: A common structure of several physical laws emerges naturally from the Tonti diagrams of different physical theories so that topological operators can be built only once and used to assemble ...

Diagram of generic plant and animal cells, showing major organelles including nucleus, nucleolus, rough endoplasmic reticulum, smooth endoplasmic reticulum, cell ...
