For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process can lead to cell death or diseases like cancer. A new study has shown how ...

After centuries of mapping the human body in ever-finer detail, scientists are still making discoveries. Here we are, in 2025, and a previously unknown cellular structure that could be vital to our ...

A newly identified virus–cell hybrid structure allows viruses to spread faster and more aggressively by hitching a ride on ...

Closely related subtypes of dopamine-releasing neurons may play entirely separate roles in processing sensory information, ...

The human genome is no longer just a sequence to be read. It’s a dynamic structure that twists, folds, and reshapes itself in ...

A quick revision guide covering key concepts, biomolecules, cell organelles, and essential NEET-style MCQs to boost exam preparation.

Ryan Notti (left) and Thomas Walz (right) discovered new characteristics of a T cell receptor that are essential to a variety ...

The human cell is a miserable thing to study. Tens of trillions of them exist in the body, forming an enormous and intricate network that governs every disease and metabolic process. Each cell in that ...

The most complex engineering of human cell lines ever has been achieved by scientists, revealing that our genomes are more resilient to significant structural changes than was previously thought. The ...

Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) arises from defective blood stem cells that progressively lose their normal functions.

This article explores how single-cell multiomics and spatial transcriptomics are illuminating early pregnancy, uncovering ...
