How do biological cells join forces to form a structure? In her Ph.D. research, Daphne Nesenberend uses mathematics to show ...
How does a single cell reliably build one of the most complex structures known in nature? New research suggests the answer ...
The cells in your body are following an incredibly complex roadmap.
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 ...
How does a tiny cluster of cells become an embryo with a head, trunk, and tail? And how do thousands of genes coordinate this development? A new imaging method makes it possible to visualize the ...
What researchers know of human cells is pieced together like a scrapbook full of snapshots: division here, fertilization there, with maybe a bit of differentiation in between. While scientists know ...
