Cells are the basic building blocks of all living things. So, in order to treat or cure almost any disease or condition – including cancer – you first need to have a fundamental understanding of cell ...

All starting from the same DNA, neurons ultimately take on individual characteristics in the brain and body. Differences in ...

Genes contain instructions for protein production, and the central dogma of biology states that this information flows from DNA to RNA to proteins. However, only about 2% of the human genome actually ...

The collection of RNA molecules in a cell, known as the transcriptome, holds the key to a wealth of useful information. It can tell us where genes are turned on and off, as well as uncovering to what ...
