The development of humans and other animals unfolds gradually over time, with cells taking on specific roles and functions ...

When we hear sounds, specialized cells in the cochlear nucleus are the first to process that information, enabling our brains to understand speech, enjoy music and recognize various noises. For ...

Researchers have developed two innovative tools to help us delve deeper into cell communication, offering spatial insight ...

Launching a company in today’s competitive (and litigious) spatial biology market may seem risky. But the new company, Moleculent, located in Stockholm, Sweden, has a different focus than the spatial ...

Researchers have created an early map of some of the human body’s estimated 37.2 trillion cells. Each type of cell has a unique role, and knowing what all the cells do can help scientists better ...

Cell mapping methods have emerged as a robust framework for the global analysis of nonlinear dynamical systems. By discretising the continuous state space into a finite number of cells, researchers ...

An estimated 86 billion neurons in the average human brain govern our body’s functions and conjure — somehow — the human mind. C. elegans has 302 neurons in one sex and a few more in the other.

Mapping is crucial in understanding and contextualizing our environments. Mapping serves many purposes – it helps us establish efficient paths between destinations, locate new restaurants or find our ...

The most comprehensive cell map of the human gut to date has been created by combining spatial and single-cell data from 1.6 million cells. Mapping the cells of the gut can provide us with further ...

A new study, published recently in Nature Communications, offers the first-ever map of which parts of Chikungunya virus trigger the strongest response from the body's T cells. With this map in hand, ...
