LMU scientists have developed a method to measure the activity of genes more efficiently and thus gain a better understanding of biological processes. All cells have the same genes, but for their ...

Organisms are composed of cells, some of which are constantly replaced, while others stay in place for a long time. For many years, scientists studied cell biology and tissue function by analyzing the ...

Everyone knows that The Scientific Method is the key to doing science. No-one's quite sure what it is, but they know it's there, and it's something rather special. It's not. When scientists sit down ...

The rising resistance of bacteria to antibiotics presents an escalating global health risk. Now, researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology in Marburg, Germany, have combined ...

Spatial biology answers a question that bulk and single-cell methods cannot: not just which cells are present in a tissue, but where they sit and which neighbors they are signaling to. This guide maps ...

Spatial proteomics is a spatial biology method that helps study the spatial distribution of the proteins within cells and tissues. The subcellular localization of proteins is intrinsic to cellular ...

Stay up to date on the latest science with Brush Up Summaries. Spatial biology is a series of techniques with which scientists collect detailed cellular information and examine the positional context ...

3D spatial biology addresses one of the field's most persistent blind spots: the loss of depth. Most spatial transcriptomics platforms generate data from a single tissue section, a thin slice ...
