Researchers develop synthetic markers that cross the blood-brain barrier, allowing for noninvasive monitoring of the living brain via blood tests.

Understanding the connection between behavior and brain cell activity is a major goal of neuroscience. To make progress, ...

Drs. Jeanette Johnson, Elana J. Fertig, and Daniel Bergman review mathematical models and genomic data to simulate cancer cell growth. [University of Maryland School of Medicine] Researchers at ...

DNA can be thought of as a vast library that stores all genetic information. Cells do not use this information all at once. Instead, they copy only the necessary parts into RNA, which is then used to ...

Early mammalian ancestors were nocturnal, sleeping during the day while the dinosaurs dominated the land. However, some mammalian lineages, including human ancestors, independently transitioned to ...

The intense sensation we experience from powerful sounds—like a jet engine roaring at takeoff or the deep thump of concert speakers—isn’t just something we hear in our ears or feel in our heads. Our ...

The field of cellular neuroscience continues to reveal the intricate regulation of neural and glial cell function by water and ion channels, transporters, ...

Scientists have developed a groundbreaking cryo-optical microscopy technique that freezes living cells mid-action, capturing ultra-detailed snapshots of fast biological processes. By rapidly ...

Researchers created a cryo-optical microscopy method that freezes live cells in milliseconds, enabling multi-mode imaging of fast cellular events. (Nanowerk News) Optical microscopy is a key technique ...

AI tools expedite antibody probe development, allowing researchers to track activity inside living cells. Researchers at Colorado State University (CSU; CO, USA) have determined how to use artificial ...
