The research, published in Nature Methods, introduces a series of fluorescent dyes that make it much easier to take ultra‑detailed images of living cells.

Researchers have developed a compact camera that captures ultraviolet, near-infrared, and visible images using a single chip.

A team is building a fully implantable brain-computer interface (BCI) that allows patients to use their thoughts to control wearable robotic legs

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet and KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden have developed an improved method for creating insulin-producing cells from human stem cells.

Aging doesn’t just slow the body. It can quietly cloud the mind. For many people, that shows up as brain fog, with slower thinking, fading memory, and a growing sense that the brain isn’t working quite like it used to.

MIT scientists create a detailed map of exactly what happens in the brains of C. elegans worms when they “follow their nose” to savor attractive odors or avoid unappealing ones.

Scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital have developed patient-derived tumor organoids and tumor organoid xenografts that accurately reflect the biologic underpinnings of embryonal brain tumors.

McGill University researchers have developed an artificial intelligence tool that can identify small groups of cells most responsible for driving aggressive cancers.

Researchers from Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) developed a new RNA sequencing strategy that can reveal how genetic variants disrupt gene function and improve the diagnosis of rare diseases.
