A Scripps team has adapted advanced imaging and computation to measure cell membrane thickness inside intact animal and yeast ...

Cell membrane integrity is vital for the survival and function of tissues across biological systems. The rapid repair of membrane disruptions is mediated by specialised mechanisms that mobilise ...

Scientists have long known that cellular membranes vary in thickness, but measuring those differences inside actual cells has ...

Cells do more than carry out chemical reactions. New theoretical work suggests they may also generate usable electrical ...

Cancer cells have softer membranes than healthy cells. New nanoparticles exploit this physical difference to fuse selectively ...

Allan Albig receives funding from the National Institute of Health. Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little “organs” inside ...
