The shape of biological structures, ranging from flower petals to the limbs or organs of animals, is often naturally best ...

A framework for analyzing single-cell genomics data, in which geometrical properties are harnessed to obtain insights on cellular diversity, including precise clustering, clear visualizations, and ...

A beginner friendly Blender tutorial showing how to create a simple 3D strawberry model. Step by step guidance makes it easy ...

The mechanical process of cell division exerts powerful, if microscopic, forces. How do the molecular machines that power it ...

Simple, sweet, and sure to make Dad smile.

CAR T-cell therapy, when someone’s immune cells are genetically engineered to kill cancer cells, is highly effective for treating certain types of cancer, but it is too expensive to be widely ...

The body’s “killer” T cells don’t just attack—they strike with astonishing precision, forming a tiny, highly organized contact zone that lets them destroy dangerous cells without harming their ...

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes are the body's specialized "killer" cells, precisely eliminating infected or cancerous cells. Their action relies on a specialized exchange zone called the "immune synapse," ...

In conventional pathology and physiology research, two-dimensional (2D) analysis—observing thinly sliced tissue sections—has been mainstream, making it difficult to comprehensively understand the ...

Most cells in the human body exist in complex three-dimensional environments, yet they are still commonly studied on flat plastic dishes. These two-dimensional cultures distort cell behavior, limiting ...

Researchers developed a microfluidic chip with 3D-printed microstructures that moves droplets precisely, captures cells efficiently, and quickly forms cell spheroids for improved lab-grown tissue ...

Growing cells in three dimensions is critical for studying how tissues behave in the body, yet most laboratory platforms remain either too simple or too complex to use widely. Researchers now present ...
