Scientists from US have for the first time provided an unprecedented view of the 3D structure of human chromatin in the nucleus of living human cells.
Scientists have demonstrated how living cells can be induced to carry out computations in the manner of tiny robots or computers.
For the first time, a primitive movie has been encoded in, and then played back from, DNA in living cells.
Researchers from ITMO University have built a setup for recording holograms of tiny objects like living cells with a femtosecond speed.
The balled structure reveals organization, which is critical for gene activity.
The use of nanotechnology in medical procedures may just be a few short years away, according to new research.
Research identifies cellular recycling process linked to beneficial effects of enduring mild stress
Recent research published in Molecular & Cellular Proteomics offers one glimpse into how cutting calories impacts aging inside a cell.
Microfluidics, electronics and inkjet technology underlie a newly developed all-in-one biochip that can analyze cells for research and clinical applications.
Two infants diagnosed with an aggressive and previously incurable form of leukemia are now in remission, after British doctors say they cured the babies using so-called "designer cells".
It was not so long ago that sequencing even tiny snippets of DNA was a costly, cumbersome process that required access to a state-the-art lab. Today, we are inching close to putting a DNA sequencer in every pocket.
Scientists at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) have discovered a protein that fine-tunes the cellular clock involved in aging.
We humans may be more aligned with the universe than we realize. Scientists have discovered that neutron stars and cell cytoplasm have something in common: structures that resemble multistory parking garages.
The 2016 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Yoshinori Ohsumi for his discoveries of mechanisms for autophagy -- a fundamental process for degrading and recycling cellular components.
Engineers program human cells to store complex histories in their DNA.
