Researchers have developed an organ-on-a-chip device that could change the way clinicians approach cancer treatment, particularly ovarian cancer.

A new method that analyzes how individual immune cells react to the bacteria that cause tuberculosis could pave the way for new vaccine strategies against this deadly disease, and provide insights into fighting other infectious diseases around the world.

A new study shows that the stiffness of protein fibers in tissues are a key component in controlling the movement of cells. The groundbreaking discovery provides the first proof of a theory from the early 1980s and could have a major impact on fields that study cell movement from regenerative medicine to cancer research.

Scientists have shown that cockatoos learn novel behaviors, like lifting garbage bin lids to gather food, through social learning.

Researchers have found that the calcium modulator, CaMKII, protects the optic nerve in mice, opening the door to new sight-saving therapy.

Researchers have discovered how a specific genetic mutation (H3K27M) causes an incurable childhood cancer called diffuse midline glioma (DMG). In laboratory studies working with cell models, they were able to successfully reversed its effects to slow cancer cell growth with a targeted drug.

A case study has allowed the testing and verification of the potential effectiveness of the first noninvasive therapy for glioblastoma in the world.

A new Yale study suggests that, in a sense, mammals dream about the world they are about to experience before they are even born.

Scientists have revealed the structure of a large, snake-like enzyme called HUWE1, and how it marks a multitude of undesirable proteins for degradation. Their findings further our understanding of this enzyme and its therapeutic potential.

DeepMind and the European Molecular Biology Laboratory have partnered to make the most complete and accurate database yet of predicted protein structure models for the human proteome.
