Bacteria can invade colorectal cancer tumors, leading to worse disease outcomes. Oxygen — or lack thereof — plays a vital role in this interaction.

By watching brain organoids develop, researchers observed surprising abnormalities caused by mutations in a gene related to early-onset Alzheimer’s disease.

Researchers discovered that where mRNA translation occurs in the cytoplasm changes protein expression level and sometimes even function.

Microscopy images reveal the structural change that enlarges an ion channel pore, opening new directions in drug discovery and delivery.

Researchers use fluorescence-based imaging to visualize a cellular invasion event in worms, revealing candidates for gene knockdown strategies to block metastasis.

High resolution microscopy revealed distinct mitochondrial populations in inner ear hair cells, setting the stage for probing their role in mitochondrial deafness.
