Labs around the world are trying to turn cells into autobiographers, tracking their own development from embryos to adults.

Research shows that genetic reasons are why some dieters experience the Yo-Yo Effect.

The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has designed this tiny, robotic hand that could capture a virus, neutralizing its ...

A tiny, four-fingered 'hand' folded from a single piece of DNA can pick up the virus that causes COVID-19 for highly sensitive rapid detection and can even block viral particles from entering cells to ...

Within a cell, DNA carries the genetic code for building proteins. To build proteins, the cell makes a copy of DNA, called mRNA.

The engineered cells could help researchers understand how cells work together and trace the origins of certain illnesses ...

Cells can now be genetically programmed to record their histories within their genomes, a development that could ...

Chemotherapy drugs can kill cancer cells by halting DNA replication, but a glucose-depleted environment can help cancer cells ...
