Scientists have continually been seeking better ways to track the electrical activity of the body's most excitable cells, such as neurons, heart muscle fibers and pancreatic cells. These tiny ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have shown that the "pacemaker" controlling yeast cell division lies inside the nucleus rather than outside it, as previously thought. Having the pacemaker ...

WASHINGTON, July 16 (Reuters) - Researchers have succeeded in turning ordinary cardiac muscle cells into specialized ones that deliver a steady heartbeat using a gene therapy procedure they predict ...
