In a twist, researchers at the University of Virginia and the National Institutes of Health uncovered a new organelle, dubbed ...

That extra step, however, might hold a key for better understanding certain genetic conditions, many of which stem from ...

University of Virginia scientists discover new cell organelle called "hemifusome" that helps manage cellular recycling.

Scientists have developed a technique that aligns stem cells into a single sheet, resulting in a marked increase in the secretion of signaling proteins which help repair tissue and regulate the immune ...

While they are being eliminated, the cells emit signals that prompt the surrounding tissue to grow. The growing tissue in turn influences where further T cells are tested. “A self-organized, ...

The thymus is one of the most important organs of the immune system, where T cells learn to distinguish the body’s own tissue from foreign tissue – a decisive step in preventing autoimmune diseases.

Even after decades of research, biologists are still uncovering surprises about the human body. A team of researchers from ...

The data stored in a static random access memory (SRAM) immediately after power-up is of practical interest for some applications, such as SRAM physical unclonable functions. In this paper, ...

In rapid freezing, a large number of small ice crystals are formed. Small ice crystals produce less cell wall rupture than slow freezing, which produces only a few large ice crystals. Some home ...
