Scientists are now working on something once thought impossible — creating human DNA entirely from scratch using chemicals, not parents. This synthetic DNA, or synDNA, could unlock powerful treatments ...

Researchers from the Max Planck Institute of Immunobiology and Epigenetics in Freiburg and ETH Zurich have created the first integrated map detailing the metabolic and molecular changes in human blood ...

Hemifusomes are fused vesicles, or sacs of fluid, that were previously unknown to exist inside cells. They were discovered ...

The membrane-bound organelle appears to play a huge role in helping cells sort, discard, and recycle their contents. It's ...

But the research topic is, for obvious reasons, controversial. Scientists have largely steered clear of trying to create full synthetic human genomes, wary of propelling us into a dystopian, Gattaca ...

A new study details an efficient and scalable method to generate human inner ear hair-like cells in the lab, potentially offering a new tool for hearing loss research.

Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) has spent the past decade maturing into a foundational technology. Over that time, the ...

The portrayal of uncaring scientists without any thought for the animals being used in their research is far from the truth.

The same deadly fungus is now being looked at as a potential cancer treatment. The therapy detailed in this new study is a ...

Researchers from the University of Sydney have developed a system that mimics natural selection inside living mammalian cells ...
