In a lab rack that looks more like a high-end audio system than a server, clusters of human brain cells are quietly learning ...
In human cells, there are about 20,000 genes on a two-meter DNA strand—finely coiled up in a nucleus about 10 micrometers in diameter. By comparison, this corresponds to a 40-kilometer thread packed ...
A new computer program allows scientists to design synthetic DNA segments that indicate, in real time, the state of cells. It will be used to screen for anti-cancer or viral infections drugs, or to ...
Cell-sized robots can sense temperature, make decisions, and move autonomously using nanowatts of power—no external control ...
Researchers have developed a computer model to help scientists identify tumor-fighting immune cells in patients with lung cancer treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Researchers at the Johns ...
The Challenge with BCIs: Inflammation, scarring, and programmed cell death undermine performance over time Implantable electrodes within the brain have enabled remarkable achievements—e.g., paralyzed ...
