A new machine learning model shows that star-shaped brain cells may be responsible for the brain's memory capacity, and ...

A sac-like structure formed by day 10 in over 90% of the PGAs. These gradually expanded in size over 90 days, without being given any further signals. The cell composition in the models showed ...

Their new model is called Segment Anything for Microscopy and it can precisely segment images of tissues, cells and similar structures in a wide range of settings. To make it available to ...

Imagine cells navigating through a complex maze, guided by chemical signals and the physical landscape of their environment.

A new concept of kinetic modules in biochemical networks could revolutionize the understanding of how these networks function ...

4 As researchers continue to refine models of eukaryogenesis ... function critical to the cell's survival (Table 1). Table 1. The structure and function of key eukaryotic cell structures. In animal ...

but here these cells serve as a general model for any brain cell. Cisterna’s research explored the role of a protein called PFN1. He found that it plays an important role in building the ...

Because this is a stem cell model rather than a full-blown embryo, the cells (according to the researchers) create a “trunk-like structure” that extends 1 to 2 millimeters in length.

A sac-like structure formed by day 10 in over 90% of the PGAs. These gradually expanded in size over 90 days, without being given any further signals. The cell composition in the models showed ...
