Your body has over a trillion cells, but how does each one know where it is and what it is supposed to do?
Humans (and all animals, really) are pretty complex. We are made of many different organs, types of muscles, bones, and a whole host of other things, all of which need to work together in order to ...
When you were first conceived, you were a single cell. From this basic fact, we can extrapolate a few things, most especially that all the cells that make up your body today came (indirectly) from ...
How does a single cell reliably build one of the most complex structures known in nature? New research suggests the answer ...
Cells are constantly on the move, whether in a developing embryo or metastatic cancer. But how do cells adapt to new environments they encounter? Traditionally, scientists have believed that cells ...
Mitochondria are essential for cell survival, repair, and adaptation. Not only do they generate most of the energy needed ...
Scientists have uncovered a surprising new way that giant embryonic cells divide—without relying on the classic “purse-string” ring long thought essential for splitting a cell in two. Studying ...
Your brain begins as a single cell. When all is said and done, it will house an incredibly complex and powerful network of some 170 billion cells. How does it organize itself along the way? Cold ...
