Ming Guo seeks connections between a cell’s physical form and its biological function, which could illuminate ways to halt abnormal cell growth.

With this microfluidic device, researchers modeled how sickled blood cells clog the spleen’s filters, leading to a potentially life-threatening condition.

Biologists have mapped out more than 300 protein kinases and their targets, which they hope could yield new leads for cancer drugs.

Prochlorococcus, the world’s most abundant photosynthetic organism, reveals a gene-transfer mechanism that may be key to its abundance and diversity.

Using these engineered proteins, researchers can record histories that reveal when certain genes are activated or how cells respond to a drug.

Groundbreaking research can help alleviate the challenges affiliated with studying carbohydrates.

These immature connections may explain how the adult brain is able to form new memories and absorb new information.

Researchers harness new pooled, image-based screening method to probe the functions of over 5,000 essential genes in human cells.

Up to one-third of the carbon consumed by Prochlorococcus may come from sources other than photosynthesis.

By analyzing enzyme activity at the organism, tissue, and cellular scales, new sensors could provide new tools to clinicians and cancer researchers.
