Artificial intelligence chatbots are standardizing how people speak, write and think. If this homogenization continues unchecked, it risks reducing humanity’s collective wisdom and ability to adapt, ...

Andrea Vernengo researches the messages cells send and receive through hydrogels. Her lab studies wound healing and cancer, and potential new therapies.

For decades, lab-grown cells have been studied in materials that don't reflect the softness and flexibility of human tissue.

Norton Healthcare is opening a new islet cell lab to treat chronic pancreatitis and research a cure for Type 1 diabetes. The first phase will treat pancreatitis by transplanting a patient's own islet ...

A simulated cell in the early stages of division. Left half shows membrane (green cubes), and ribosomes (yellow/purple) interwoven through in the cell’s chromosome (red). Right side shows all the ...

UCSF scientists found a precise way to turn on cancer-fighting immune cells inside the body. This more potent form of CAR-T has the potential to treat many more cancers.

Animal studies often fail to predict human tissue responses to new drugs or newly developed therapies. Besides generating tremendous costs for clinical studies, it also raises significant ethical ...

Back in 1907, American biologist Henry Van Peters Wilson discovered that sponges will re-form into living creatures after their cells are broken apart through a fine mesh screen — demonstrating that ...

When a virus infects a bacterial cell, the viral genome is the first component to be fully injected into the cell, making it an ideal immune target. A bacterial enzyme anchored to the membrane ...

Miniature organs grown in the lab can organize themselves into complex shapes. But they never do it the same way twice, which makes it hard to use these so-called ‘organoids’ to study disease.
