Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) find it harder to get pregnant, have more frequent miscarriages and have a higher ...

Scientists have found a way to study early embryonic development without real embryos. Using CRISPR, they programmed stem cells to self-organize into structures mimicking early embryos. The cells show ...

Scientists have made a potentially “life-changing” discovery that could pave the way for new drugs to treat Parkinson’s disease. Experts have known for several decades that the PINK1 protein ...

With the long-term goal of creating living cells from non-living components, scientists in the field of synthetic biology work with RNA origami. This tool uses the multifunctionality of the natural ...

A first-of-its-kind artificial intelligence (AI)-based neural network can rapidly analyze and interpret millions of cells ...

A previously unknown protein in a family of bacteria found in soil and the human gut microbiome has been discovered – which could help drug delivery in cancer treatment.

Researchers have identified a previously unknown bacterial protein, the structure of which is being used in the design of protein nanoparticles for the targeted delivery of anticancer drugs to tumors.

Cortical Labs, an Australia-based tech company, has recently unveiled the CL1, a 'biological' computer powered by living ...

Cancer cells have an insatiable appetite for energy as they multiply more rapidly than normal cells. Greedy cancer cells hijack various cellular functions to find and exploit energy and other ...

In a mouse or human embryo, the cells that will one ... This sets up a new structure that cements the cell's future fate as a sperm cell. The companion paper shows that well before the germ ...
