A new method developed at Baylor College of Medicine and collaborating institutions allows researchers to better understand ...

Researchers have developed synthetic genes that function like the genes in living cells. The artificial genes can build intracellular structures through a cascading sequence that builds ...

This article was originally featured on Knowable Magazine. More than 1.5 billion years ago, a momentous thing happened: Two small, primitive cells became one. Perhaps more than any event—barring the ...

Life and death are traditionally viewed as opposites. But the emergence of new multicellular life-forms from the cells of a dead organism introduces a “third state” that lies beyond the traditional ...

CiQUS researchers introduces an innovative chemical strategy to create biomimetic structures with greater efficiency. The design of more versatile and controllable synthetic cells could unlock new ...
