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.
Cell membranes are a basic structure common to most living organisms – but they can be hijacked.
Pioneered by the Human Cell Atlas consortium, our understanding of the human body is about to be transformed – and with it, the way we treat and prevent disease
Fat cells and cancer cells talk to each other. Specialists in both systems can do the same.
New research finds that ‘leaky mitochondria’ help keep sea otters warm.
Nanodiamonds aren't just cellular bling: they could be used to better understand the development of cancer in our cells.

Healing is a complicated process. As people age, higher rates of disease and the fact that old cells lose the ability to divide slow this process down.
We wanted to find out which biological phenomena are crucial for pattern formation and which are just incidental. These sorts of questions can be answered with mathematical modelling.
