CRISPR gene therapy Casgevy can nearly eliminate sickle cell crises, but difficult stem‑cell collection is delaying access ...

Graham Johnson, a computational biologist and scientific illustrator at the Allen Institute for Cell Science, recalls fantasizing at a lunch table, more than 15 years ago, about a computer model of a ...

A new study describes a technique that rejuvenates aging blood-forming stem cells and could help reduce the risk of age-related blood disorders.

The human body is a dynamic place. Blood pumps, spinal fluid flows, oxygen comes in and carbon dioxide goes out. Deeper still, charged molecules pass through cell walls, quietly keeping the body's ...

A newly discovered visual cell in deep-sea fish larvae is reshaping long-held assumptions about how vertebrates see the world.

Some single-celled organisms are known to transition to multicellularity during their lifetimes, usually either by cloning themselves or when many similar cells come together to form a larger ...

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 ...

Innovations in imaging and genetic engineering are coming together to probe the biophysics of cytoplasm inside living animals.

Hairy-cell leukemia (HCL) is a rare, indolent neoplasm of mature B cells with hairlike surface projections that circulate in the blood and preferentially infiltrate the bone marrow and spleen. The ...
