Data include assessment of MET expression, tumor and immune pathway activity, and lineage plasticity from just 1 mL of plasma in advanced NSCLCPlasma MET test showed high concordance with tissue ...

A cell copies all of its DNA, gears up to split in two, and then just… doesn’t. It sits there, swollen with a double genome, and nobody notices. This kind of silent failure has been observed in labs ...

Every cell in your brain depends on ribosomes, tiny molecular machines that read genetic instructions and assemble the ...

A remarkable new study of the world’s oldest verified living person reveals a surprising picture of extreme longevity.

The Chemical Biology of Microbes and Membrane Proteins Lab is driven by a fundamental interest in how proteins function at the molecular level. The team seeks to establish quantitative ...

Plant developmental biology is witnessing rapid advances in understanding the roles of cytoskeletal interactions in shaping growth, morphology, and ...

The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded Assistant Professor Teresa Lee of the Department of Biological Sciences a five-year CAREER grant totaling $1.1 million to study how the proteins that ...

Syeda Warisul Fatima at Emory University explores non-genetic mechanisms of cancer adaptation to develop precise, ...

The legacy of Neandertals in modern people has often been framed as a genetic gift for fighting infection. This time, the ...

Many cancers can be treated by administering DNA-damaging agents, such as platinum-based chemotherapy, because the resulting DNA damage causes the cancer cells to die. A subset of cancers, however, ...

Summary: A milestone neuro-regenerative study has shattered a long-standing medical dogma by proving that “irreversible” damage to the connections between the human brain and spinal cord can be ...

Researchers at Cornell University have developed a safer and more precise way to study how genes function in living tissues by refining a recently developed CRISPR-based genetic technique in fruit ...
