Hwang wants to do “spatial mass spec with high resolution” to discover new biology and answer the question of which proteins enable the intimate interactions between cancer cells and nerves.

engineering and biology will be needed to understand the systems that build a cell. Table 1 outlines some of the general design principles that seem to apply to cellular geometry, based on ...

Scientists at the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC), used CRISPR to engineer cellular models of embryos that mimic what happens in the first few days after reproductive cells meet.

During the first two years, students intending to take Biochemistry as their final degree will take a range of modules in biology, chemistry, mathematics as well as approved modules in other relevant ...

Using a systems approach, we decipher molecular mechanisms across these regimes. Significantly, our study shows that heme oxygenase-1 (HMOX1) acts as a gatekeeper of cell fate decisions. Specifically, ...
