Before cells can divide, they first need to replicate all of their chromosomes, so that each of the daughter cells can ...

To study pattern formation, researchers used a method called the landscape-flux framework — which can be extended to other ...

Cell division is one of the most thoroughly studied processes in biology, yet many of its details remain mysterious. A century-old puzzle surrounding the "crown" of cell division—the kinetochore ...

Chemists induced a cell-like behavior in molecular assemblies called vesicles. They used a sacrificial chemical fuel to make the vesicles divide into smaller versions of themselves. While this process ...

Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University have accomplished a unique proof of concept to treat infertility by turning ...

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is one of the most aggressive and hardest forms of breast cancer to treat, but a new study led by Weill Cornell Medicine suggests a surprising way to stop it from ...

A gamete created with SCNT has 46. To solve this problem, the researchers developed a technique they call mitomeiosis, an artificial method that mimics the natural process of cell division. "The ...
