Over the past two decades, synthetic biology has fueled advancements across a broad range of disciplines, including agriculture, bioremediation, biofuel production, and chemical manufacturing. Today, ...

In experiments, researchers showed that the disease-spreading insects couldn’t resist the sweet smell of a fungus that infected and killed them.

Research from UChicago dissects how a single genetic switch helps butterflies mimic wing patterns of other species to protect ...

The vestibular system is responsible for the sense of balance in the inner ear. Prolonged use of toxic substances, such as certain antibiotics or anticancer drugs, can damage the hair cells that form ...

The work is currently in preclinical stages, as the team runs experiments with cells and lab mice to refine their mRNA ...

Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is a known risk factor for coronary artery disease, though its precise role in disease progression continues to emerge. This study leverages ...

Visual motion information is essential to guiding the movements of many animals. The establishment of direction-selective signals, a hallmark of motion detection, is considered a core neural ...

Ribosomes are the cell's protein factories, which read the genetic code and assemble the proteins that every organism needs to live. But as far as how ribosomes themselves were formed, tantalizingly ...
