The “missing link” helps adults grow new neurons—something long thought to end after childhood—and that discovery could lead ...
RNA bundled in lipid nanoparticles trains T cells in mice to eliminate cancer. Coupled with noninvasive imaging, researchers tracked the in situ CAR-T cells to assess their effectiveness and safety.
Scientists at ChristianaCare’s Helen F. Graham Cancer Center & Research Institute and the University of Delaware have discovered a surprisingly simple explanation for how our bodies stay so ...
The authors proposed two hypotheses: first, that methamphetamine induces neuroinflammation, and second, that it alters neuronal stem cell differentiation. These are valuable hypotheses, and the ...
CRISPR construct to genetically ablate the GABA transporter GAT3 in the mouse visual cortex, with effects on population-level neuronal activity. This work is important, as it sheds light on how GAT3 ...
Stem cell tech simulates ALS, quantum tools decode quasicrystals, and cancer exploits a human mutation—three breakthroughs ...
Some mammals are capable of hibernating during periods of low food availability in an effort to conserve energy and survive.

The open benchmark competition will evaluate the ability of AI-powered virtual cell models to generalize to new cell contexts for therapeutic applications.
Every fortress needs watchmen, sentinels who don’t just sound the alarm, but sense when danger is approaching. For decades, we believed the brain’s sentinels were microglia alone, immune cells ...
A model developed by LMU biophysicists demonstrates how biological processes form the convoluted internal architecture of the thymus—allowing for better suppression of autoimmune responses.
When neurons transmit messages throughout the body through electrical currents, the currents can be regular and rhythmic, or irregular, chaotic bursts. Using a model inspired by the Hodgkin-Huxley ...
