A Japanese team has developed a technique to insert chloroplasts isolated from algae into animal cells, a feat that could ...

Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) excels over the widely used fluorescence intensity imaging by allowing the measurement of absolute signal levels, independent of sensor concentration.

In an incredible feat that redefines biological boundaries, scientists have successfully engineered animal cells that are capable of photosynthesis. This breakthrough, led by Professor Sachihiro ...

Scientists create solar-powered animal cells using chloroplasts. Hybrid cells show enhanced growth and photosynthesis activity. Breakthrough may lead to sustainable tissue engineering.

After decades of failed attempts, scientists have finally succeeded in coaxing animal cells into photosynthesizing. So far, the researchers have only managed to achieve the feat in cultured cells ...

In a world first that challenges what we thought we knew about biology, scientists have successfully engineered animal cells that can photosynthesize. The breakthrough promises to revolutionize ...

Thanks to the diffraction limit, scientists could use the light microscope to see cells but not the proteins inside them or a virus attacking them. But there are optical microscopes today that can ...

I had to find the right field of view where the differentiated and non-differentiated cells interacted.This took about three hours of precise observation under the microscope to capture the right ...

The first couple of years in retirement are often the most difficult. But they also can set the stage for how you’ll fill the years ahead—both financially and psychologically. Stephen Kreider ...

Viruses, those tiny invaders wriggling their way into host cells are a marvel of biological survival. Among them, arteriviruses, found in a variety of animals across the globe, have evoked great ...
