While many of life's mysteries remain unsolved, every biologist can describe the basic processes performed by a living organism, including energy use, reproduction, growth and development. While these ...

From why it was created to whether it’s alive, here’s what to know about SpudCell, the latest advance in synthetic biology.

Scientists built a synthetic cell that combines more lifelike properties than ever before — proof of concept that it’s possible to bring nonliving materials to life, or something close to it, in the ...

Scientists say they have built a cell from scratch for the first time that feeds, grows and replicates like a natural cell, a breakthrough in synthetic biology.

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

Researchers have developed a way to program human cells to perform calculations and make autonomous decisions, similar to how ...

Biomedical engineers at Duke University have used induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to grow specialized blood vessel cells critical to retinal health for the first time. When injected into mouse ...

What previously required months or years of specialised lab work can now be done in hours or days thanks to its integrated ...

Abstract: Fuel Cell Hybrid Electric Vehicles (FCHEVs) offer an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional vehicles, yet their performance heavily relies on the efficiency of their Energy ...

Cancer is often considered a disease of aging. Older adults are at higher risk because they have had more time to accumulate ...

Global drug development data and collaboration agreements show growth beyond traditional Western hubs. Efficiency gains drove the shift, while continued innovation sustains it.

Cancer immunotherapy is entering a new phase in which the stimulation of conventional adaptive immunity is increasingly complemented by the exploitation of unconventional T cells (UCTs) and by the ...
