Scientists can peer into cells to get a limited view of their activity using microscopes and other tools. However, cells and ...
Custom polymer structures can now be 3D printed inside living cells using laser-based fabrication, opening paths to intracellular sensors, cell tracking tags, and embedded microlasers.
The beta cells of the pancreas are responsible for releasing the hormone insulin, which is vital for the absorption of glucose from the bloodstream. Various factors can impair the ability of these ...
Scientists have crossed a startling new frontier in bioengineering: they can now fabricate intricate three-dimensional ...
A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.
More than 1.5 billion years ago, a momentous thing happened: Two small, primitive cells became one. Perhaps more than any event—barring the origin of life itself—this merger radically changed the ...
Jeremy Berg does not work for, consult, own shares in or receive funding from any company or organization that would benefit from this article, and has disclosed no relevant affiliations beyond their ...
Two photon polymerization has now moved from “on cells” to “inside cells”, opening a strange, new frontier.
Stanford University-led researchers report that tumor cells hijack mitochondria from immune cells, reducing anti-tumor immune ...
A new twist on two-photon polymerization has been used to deliver objects, including lasers and an elephant, directly into ...
