Antioxidant gel preserves islet function after pancreas removal

New approach could enable patients to live pain-free without complications of diabetes. Northwestern University researchers have developed a new antioxidant biomaterial that someday could provide much-needed relief to people living…

A protein that enables smell—and stops cell death

The protein Orco is essential for smell neuron function and development in ants, fostering the insects’ social behavior. While smell plays a considerable role in the social interactions of humans—for…

Chasing down a cellular ‘short circuit’

Team of researchers at UC San Diego identifies cause of cellular miscommunication implicated in the origin of many human diseases. A group of researchers at University of California San Diego…

Neurons in the visual system of flies

… exhibit surprisingly heterogeneous wiring. Analysis of the connectome of Drosophila melanogaster provides new insights into how its visual system is organized / Research contribution by the FlyWire Consortium. An…

The embryo assembles itself

New mathematical framework sheds light on how cells communicate to form an embryo. Biological processes depend on puzzle pieces coming together and interacting. Under specific conditions, these interactions can create…
