Research provides new insights into how the brain forms habits and explains why they can be so difficult to break.

Picture a living cell as if it were a city. If you were the urban planner for this (very little, very alive) city, one of the ...

Cell types in animals evolved by step-wise diversification into sister cell types, which is analogous to the evolution of species or genes. We can identify homologous cell types between species by ...

A user inputs the sequence of amino acids that form the protein and three cell stain images -- one for the nucleus, one for the microtubules, and one for the endoplasmic reticulum. Then PUPS does ...

This is a potentially valuable modeling study on sequence generation in the hippocampus in a variety of behavioral contexts. While the scope of the model is ambitious, its presentation is incomplete ...

When you add the viruses infecting nonmammalian animals, plants ... such as the origin of DNA, the cell nucleus, and cell walls, and even the divergence of the three great domains of life.

Video: You can watch the full Brain Busters 2025 finale in the video player above. Congratulations to our finalists, Manheim Township and Penn Manor, and to all the other schools that competed during ...

Mapping a human cell gives researchers a view of subcellular architecture and sheds light on how cancer develops.

In the mice, the experimental therapy corrected KJ's mutation, replacing the errant A-T base pair with the correct G-C pair in the animals' cells. The first dose provided a 42 percent whole-liver ...

Also, in sperm cells, the mitochondria spiral in the midpiece and provide energy for tail motion. Although most of our DNA is in the nucleus of each cell, mitochondria have their own set of DNA.
