A cancerous tumor is not a single enemy. It is made up of many different cell populations that can behave in very different ways. Among them, even at the time of diagnosis, there may already be cells ...

Modern biomedicine increasingly relies on enormous amounts of image data. Although computers can do part of the analysis work, biologists often still need to look through the images themselves. This ...

Scientists probing life’s deepest origins have uncovered evidence that the first free-living cells may have emerged not once, but twice. The findings suggest a striking possibility: life may share one ...

Knights of science have long chased a biologic holy grail: transforming a soup of raw chemicals into self-sustaining life. Now, a team led by synthetic biologist Kate Adamala, of the University of ...

For the very first time, biologists packed nonliving components into a cell-like membrane, piece by piece, and witnessed the bag of molecules start to behave like life. The lab-made synthetic cell ...

mLLMCelltype is a multi-LLM consensus framework for automated cell type annotation in single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data. The framework integrates multiple large language models including ...

No, this isn’t science fiction. Real-life researchers taught a dish of roughly 200,000 living human brain cells to play the classic 1990s computer game “Doom.” Experts at Cortical Labs, an Australian ...

A solar charging kit, inexpensive as-is and purchased after further promotional enticement, enables keeping a remotely located vehicle battery topped off. One of the things I enjoy most about ...

Let’s say it’s 2036, and scientists are working on a new class of drugs. These medications are mirror-image versions of the molecules your body uses to fight disease. Their big advantage is that ...

Have you ever stared at a colorful Excel spreadsheet, wondering how to quickly calculate totals or counts based on cell colors? It’s a common frustration for anyone managing large datasets. While ...
