A human cell is a Rube Goldberg machine like no other, full of biological chain reactions that make the difference between ...

Every multicellular organism, from tiny worms to humans, elephants, and whales, needs a way for their cells to connect with ...

One of the holy grails of biology is digitally simulating a living cell. If researchers can use computers to more accurately understand how new medicines would react in the body, that could give them ...

By simulating the life cycle of a minimal bacterial cell—from DNA replication to protein translation to metabolism and cell division—scientists have opened a new frontier of computer vision into the ...

A vascularized organoid model of hormone-secreting cells in the pancreas has been developed, with potential to improve diabetes research and cell-based therapies. “Our results highlight the importance ...

A remarkably small bacterium containing fewer than 500 genes serves as the basis for one of the most detailed digital life ...
