In a wholly new approach to cancer treatment, Northwestern University biomedical engineers have doubled the effectiveness of chemotherapy in animal experiments. Instead of attacking cancer directly, ...

Memory doesn’t live only in the brain. Scientists are uncovering signs that cells throughout the body can remember, too. These findings are starting to challenge old ideas about how and where memory ...

A small but enthusiastic group of neuroscientists is exhuming overlooked experiments and performing new ones to explore whether cells record past experiences — fundamentally challenging what memory is ...

Decades of research has viewed DNA as a sequence-based instruction manual; yet every cell in the body shares the same genes – so where is the language that writes the memory of cell identities?

The human body is a remarkable archive of information, storing not just genetic data but also memories, experiences, and personality traits within individual cells. While mainstream science focuses on ...

Cancer cells rapidly adapt to treatments, developing resistance that makes chemotherapy less effective. Researchers used an existing anti-inflammatory drug to disrupt cancer cells’ ability to adapt by ...
