Scientists can peer into cells to get a limited view of their activity using microscopes and other tools. However, cells and ...

Researchers have developed a way to 3D print custom micrometer-sized structures directly into the interior of living cells.

Scientists have uncovered a new way embryonic cells divide when conventional mechanisms fail. Cell division underpins all ...

A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.

Thanks to cryo-electron tomography, a state-of-the-art imaging technique that flash-freezes cells to capture them in 3D with near-atomic resolution, scientists were able to observe the hemifusome.

Using new microscopic methods in combination with machine learning-based image analysis, researchers from Freiburg have discovered new structures on the surface of living B cells that affect the ...

New device could be used to observe structures as small as individual proteins, as well as the environment in which they move ...

Cells do more than carry out chemical reactions. New theoretical work suggests they may also generate usable electrical energy through constant motion in their membranes, offering a fresh way to think ...

Prior to using this narrative, have learners create their own model of a cell in their notebooks using whatever background information or experience they might have. While exploring the narrative, ...
