Biological engineers developed a computational approach to extracting useful information from large biological datasets. They showed they could unravel interactions that determine how the immune ...

In a new study evaluating meditation for chronic lower back pain, researchers at University of California San Diego School of Medicine have discovered that men and women utilize different biological ...

Under the right conditions, liquid crystals condense into astonishing structures, spontaneously generating filaments and flattened discs that can transport material from one place to another, much ...

Protons are the basis of bioenergetics. We know them, in our everyday life, from the pH values we see on various soaps and lotions. But the ability to move them through biological systems is essential ...

The center will enable research that uses existing, publicly available data to glean new insights about how complex biological systems, such as cells, emerge from simpler molecules. Findings from the ...

Ever better experimental techniques allow us to perform experiments under tightly controlled conditions and can deliver gigantic amounts of data reflecting the complexity of biology. This has vastly ...

Lactoferrin (LF), a multifunctional glycoprotein of the transferrin family, is naturally expressed in human and cow milk. The name ‘LF’ is derived from its ability to bind to iron (ferrin, a suffix ...

At first glance, biology and quantum technology seem incompatible. Living systems operate in warm, noisy environments full of constant motion—while quantum technology often requires extreme isolation ...

Getting a shingles vaccine is a standard recommendation for older adults looking to avoid a painful skin rash, yet new research suggests the benefits may extend much deeper into the body’s cells. A ...
