The single-celled ciliate Stentor coeruleus demonstrates habituation to mechanical stimuli, but the mechanism of learning in this single cell, which l…

A new Marine Corps policy says troops with a genetic skin condition that can cause pain and scarring from shaving and mainly affects Black men can be separated if the health issue persists.

DNA G-quadruplexes (G4s) are non–B-form DNA secondary structures that threaten genome stability by impeding DNA replication. To elucidate how G4s induce replication fork arrest, we characterized fork ...

Squid primary cells from various tissues and ages are isolated, maintained in culture, and express exogenous genes. This protocol opens up numerous opportunities in molecular biology, neuroscience, an...

Single cells can perform surprisingly complex behaviors and computations, including primitive forms of learning like habituation. New work highlighted here uses mathematical modeling to show that relatively simple biochemical networks can recapitulate many features of habituation in animals.
