“The dragon comes out when you don’t follow directions, but the dragon is also fiercely loyal,” she says. “Once you’re my student, you’re mine forever."
In the last 50 years, behavioral health researchers have made major progress in understanding depression not as a condition born purely from lived experiences, but as a multi-faceted disorder with complex underlying biology. A growing body…
Spatial biology gives you the power to better understand how cells interact within tissue and how those interactions influence biological processes in healthy or diseased tissue. Thermo Fisher Scientific's high-plex fluorescent labeling…
Cancer researcher Iñigo San Millán is also a coach to Tadej Pogačar, a favorite to win this year's Tour de France. In this interview, San Millán discusses his work in both arenas.
The question of what defines a species has vexed scientists across the ages, particularly in conservation, where decisions require a firm understanding of biodiversity.
The Alzheimer's Association has published revised criteria for the diagnosis and staging of Alzheimer's disease that are based on the biology of the disease and reflect recent advancements in research, diagnostics and treatment.
Synthetic biology combines principles from science, engineering and social science, creating emerging technologies such as alternative meats and mRNA vaccines; Deconstructing synthetic biology across scales gives rise to new approach to…
New-ish CNN medical correspondent Meg Tirrell showed Thursday morning she’s so far to the left she doesn’t even believe basic biology as, in reacting to the released Supreme Court opinion on Idaho’s abortion law, Tirrell implicitly…
The field of synthetic biology, the science of manipulating biology, has a lot of "cooks in the kitchen," which has both helped it flourish and made it unusually difficult to create a cohesive, consistent curriculum for students at every…
Structural formulas are a source of dread for many students, but they're an essential tool in biology lessons. A joint study has shown that the stress levels of students working with chemical formulas are significantly reduced if they are…
