Research by the University of Cambridge and University of Strathclyde reveals that cilia in the respiratory tract generate ...

Scientists have discovered a previously unrecognized way that human airways protect lungs from infection—through the action of cilia, tiny hair-like structures lining the respiratory tract.

In order to produce effective targeted therapies for cancer, scientists need to isolate the genetic and phenotypic ...

Scientists have successfully grown over 400 different types of nerve cells from stem cells in the lab—a groundbreaking step toward replicating the complexity of the human brain.

An international team of researchers, led by the University of Exeter, have been awarded a Wellcome Discovery Award grant of ...

A study in the journal Science presents compelling new evidence that neurons in the brain's memory center, the hippocampus, ...

New research by Sumeda Nandadasa, PhD, reveals how a key protein associated with Meckel-Gruber syndrome, nephronophthisis, ...

Nadine's research delves into the role of cilia, an antenna-like cell structure, on the progression of pancreatic cancer.

Primary cilia from the brain microvascular endothelial cells (ECs) are specialized cell-surface organelles involved in mediating sensory perception, cell signaling, and vascular stability.

The most detailed atlas of the human brain ever devised includes many cell types we've never seen before.

The first image of the structures that power human cilia – the tiny, hairlike projections that line our airways – has been produced by a team involving UCL researchers and could lead to much-needed ...
