See how cells compare along a relative scale axis with other molecules, tissues, and biological structures (blue arrow at bottom). Note that a micrometer (μm) is also known as a micron.

The Department of Biological Sciences treats the life sciences in all their breadth and diversity, including the study of molecules, cells, whole organisms, ecosystems, plants, animals and ...

Network science and artificial intelligence can identify food molecules that negatively affect health as well as alleviate ...

Another challenge in solving this puzzle was the enormous range of biological functions researchers found for prostaglandins. These molecules promoted pain and inflammation, regulated pregnancy ...

A multidisciplinary research team at the Wyss Institute at Harvard University has developed a new coating technology that holds promise to substantially increase the lifespan of implanted and wearable ...

Biological sciences majors study the elements of life, from molecules to ecosystems. They learn about the scientific method and how to analyze data, and they develop written and oral communication ...

A research team based in Bochum and Mülheim is using a new type of salt to specifically produce one of two possible ...

The tiny, out-of-plane (OOP) deformations of metalloporphyrin molecules are important for the biological functions of many enzymes. However, these deformations are too small and vary slightly ...

Recently, the research team led by Dr. HUANG Qing from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of ...

Imaging the molecules in a dividing cell's "spindle," a protein structure that extends from one side of the cell to the other, has been a particular long-standing challenge. Traditional microscopy can ...
