Mitochondria perform diverse metabolic and signaling functions, yet how these activities are spatially organized within the mitochondrial network of cells remains poorly understood. Organelle contact ...

The voice-clock sang, breakfast was ejected, but no doors slammed. The garage chimed and lifted its door to reveal the waiting car. The house sat alone in a city of rubble and…

Neuronal and glial mitochondria support neuronal circuit function and plasticity through the supply of energetic substrates and the regulation of cellular physiology. Sandi and colleagues describe how...

Mammals display prominent diversity in the ability to regenerate damaged ear pinna, but the genetic changes underlying the failure of regeneration remain elusive. We performed comparative single-cell ...

From chemical building blocks, scientists have created synthetic cells that have most of the hallmarks of life.

Pipettes and Problem Solving is an initiative that teaches some of the skills needed to figure out why an experiment is producing unexpected results.

Evolution shifts dopamine neuron responses in cavefish, reversing how light drives their behavior.

EMBO Reports - When experimental controls go wrong, it does not necessarily mean your experiment is flawed. It might well be the first sign of something unexpected.

Professor challenges the idea that biochemistry must feel abstract by designing hands-on models and games that turn fear into curiosity, transforming classrooms across Pakistan into spaces for experim...

NEI scientists have found that the way the retina metabolizes glucose directly controls which genes get switched on and off in light-sensing photoreceptors.

Discovery bolsters theory that ancient mitochondria formed brand-new, specialized ‘sacs’ in cells by shedding their outer membranes.

Small changes in the non-coding part of the genome have a key role in sex determination.
