A new technology developed at MIT enables scientists to label proteins across millions of individual cells in fully intact 3D tissues with unprecedented speed, uniformity, and versatility. Using the ...

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 ...

Cell membranes cradle, protect, and gatekeep living cells. Membranes can even affect how a cell behaves. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci-tech news updates. But membranes' own erratic ...

Profiling the proteins that cells are making is a staple of studies in biology, neuroscience and related fields because the proteins a cell is expressing at a given moment can reflect the functions ...

Tissue processing advance can label proteins at the level of individual cells across whole, intact rodent brains and other large samples just as fast and uniformly as in dissociated single cells. A ...

A mouse brain hemisphere stained with various cell type makers: neurons overall (cyan), and cells specifically involved with neurotransmitters dopamine (yellow) and acetylcholine (magenta). A new ...
