The world of cells is surprisingly noisy. Each cell carries unique genetic information, but when we try to measure cellular ...

How rapidly gene expression in a single cell changes over time can provide insight into how cells might become more ...

Years of experiments and databases filled with RNA-seq results belie the simple reality that, until fairly recently, it was impossible to analyze RNA directly. The RNA-seq studies performed with ...

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has revolutionized modern biology, allowing scientists to study the expression of ...

Essentially all cells in an organism's body have the same genetic blueprint, or genome, but the set of genes that are actively expressed at any given time in a cell determines what type of cell it ...

Scientists at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory have cracked open the secrets of plant stem cells, mapping key genetic regulators ...

Studying individual plant cells reveals hidden details masked by traditional methods. New tech to measure gene activity in ...
