A eukaryote is any cell or organism that possesses a clearly defined nucleus. Eukaryotic cells form the foundation of complex, multicellular life, including apple trees, mushrooms, fish and humans.

A new discovery inside your cells may change how scientists understand disease and design future treatments. Researchers have ...

UC San Diego researchers introduce Multi-Scale Integrated Cell (MuSIC), a technique that combines microscopy, biochemistry and artificial intelligence, revealing previously unknown cell components ...

Dr. McAdams, a physicist at Stanford, was struck by the way biologists drew figures filled with arrows to show how different ...

Chinese scientists have, for the first time, cultivated a beating heart structure with human cells in a pig embryo, reporting that the heart continued to beat for 21 days unaided. The study, led by ...

Canadian researchers show that stress modifies the morphology of brain cells in mice, directly influencing the rodents' level ...
