It had been thought that AI would play a big part in digital-only domains like math and coding, but cleverly connecting these ...

In the past decade, there has been significant interest in studying the expression of our genetic code down to the level of single cells, to identify the functions and activities of any cell through ...

It's known as biology's central dogma: All living organisms' genetic information is stored in DNA, which is transcribed into RNA, which is translated into proteins that perform nearly all essential ...

The yeast Kluyveromyces lactis (K. lactis) could become a highly productive, sustainable, cost-effective energy source for cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS) as biopharmaceutical manufacturers strive ...

Every day, billions of damaged or unnecessary cells die and are swept away by the immune system’s cleanup crew—phagocytes. But when that clearance falters, dangerous cells can linger, fueling cancer ...
