New advances allow scientists to study DNA, RNA, and gene activity in individual cells rather than in bulk tissue samples.

Scientists have reprogrammed mouse cells into pluripotent stem cells using a gene from choanoflagellates, single-celled ...

A new study demonstrates that even simple single-cell organisms, such as ciliates and amoebae, exhibit habituation, a basic ...

Researchers explain how individual cells are capable of rudimentary forms of learning previously thought exclusive to ...

A dog learns to sit on command, a person hears and eventually tunes out the hum of a washing machine while reading … The ...

Up until recently, habituation -- a simple form of learning -- was deemed the exclusive domain of complex organisms with brains and nervous systems, such as worms, insects, birds, and mammals. But a ...

Cell density is a broadly applicable tool for guiding engineered and naturally occurring cells to build a vast array of structures, tissues, and organs.
