Human cells are extremely small and tightly packed – at about 20 micrometers across, roughly one-fifth the width of a human ...

Scientists have long known that cellular membranes vary in thickness, but measuring those differences inside actual cells has ...

Researchers at Colorado State University have determined how to use artificial intelligence to modify antibodies so they act ...

A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.

The exchange of cells between a mother and a fetus is a well-documented phenomenon that scientists have known about for more than 50 years. It's called microchimerism, and it goes both ways: every ...

Custom polymer structures can now be 3D printed inside living cells using laser-based fabrication, opening paths to intracellular sensors, cell tracking tags, and embedded microlasers.

A new twist on two-photon polymerization has been used to deliver objects, including lasers and an elephant, directly into ...

Cells are crowded with proteins and nucleic acids. A new study measures subcellular densities across organisms to uncover how material is distributed. (Nanowerk News) Just as life pulsates in big ...

Scientists may have found a safer way to make cells burn more calories—by turning up the heat inside our cellular power plants.

Researchers have developed a way to 3D print custom micrometer-sized structures directly into the interior of living cells.

Supercharging immune cells could provide an effective way to tackle cancer, according to new research by scientists in ...
