Our cells produce a variety of proteins, each with a specific role that, in many cases, means that they need to be in a ...

Many microscopy techniques have won Nobel Prizes over the years. Advancements like cryo-ET that allow scientists to see the individual atoms of cells can reveal their biological functions.

Yale researchers and their colleagues in Hungary have discovered that cells in the hypothalamus — an area of the brain that controls functions like hunger and body temperature — play a major role in ...

For the first time, scientists have visualized a new class of molecular gates that maintain pH balance within brain cells, a critical function that keeps cells alive and helps prevent stroke and ...
