Epilepsy has long been treated as a disease of runaway electrical activity, a storm that sweeps through the brain without any ...
Prostate cancer remains one of the most common malignancies in men worldwide, ranking as the second most prevalent cancer and ...
Scientists have attempted to map the human cell since the first microscope was invented more than 400 years ago. But many components of the cell still remain uncharted. " We know each of the proteins ...
An international team led by researchers from Harvard Medical School, Brigham and Women's Hospital, and the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine in Germany has created a detailed map of the ...
Spatial transcriptomics can reveal where thousands of genes are active across a tissue, creating molecular maps at single-cell resolution. But comparing two such maps is difficult: thin slices of ...
Craniopharyngioma (CP) is a rare brain tumor that develops in the regions close to the hypothalamus and pituitary gland. The CP tumors lead to complications like defective vision, neuronal defects, ...
How do our genes determine our appearance and our susceptibility to disease? This question is central to biomedical research, and today we can sequence thousands of human genomes to identify these ...
New simulator and computational tools generate realistic ‘virtual tissues’ and map cell-to-cell ‘conversations’ from spatial transcriptomics data, potentially accelerating AI-driven discoveries in ...
The human body contains an astonishing 36 to 37 trillion cells, each serving unique functions across organs and systems. In a groundbreaking initiative, the Human Cell Atlas (HCA), an international ...
New research has mapped the cell types that specialise to form reproductive organs in both sexes, identifying key genes and signals that drive this process. The findings offer important insights into ...
