How does a single cell reliably build one of the most complex structures known in nature? New research suggests the answer ...

Being right- or left-handed is a familiar fact about yourself that you likely don't think about much on a day-to-day basis. However, your handedness affects how you interact with the world.

This important work identifies phlda2 as a specific marker for primordial cardiomyocytes in the adult zebrafish heart and demonstrates their essential role in myocardial morphogenesis and coronary ...

Being left- or right-handed – and the paw, eye, fin and wing equivalents – is a product of genes, development and the environment.

DoD-funded project will investigate how fluorotelomers, once thought to be safer PFAS alternatives, penetrate zebrafish cells ...

Just in time for Heart Month, the laboratory of University de Montréal medical professor and CHU Sainte-Justine researcher Rubén Marín‑Juez has unveiled the first comprehensive atlas of coronary ...

In the Arminda Suli Lab, BYU students study how early brain development influences autism spectrum disorder. The team focuses ...

Microbiologist Karen Guillemin considered many universities when she was searching for her first faculty position 25 years ago. In the end, she came ...

Neuroscientists propose a new theory of brain development where cells organize based on lineage rather than long-range signals.

Your brain begins as a single cell. When all is said and done, it will house an incredibly complex and powerful network of some 170 billion cells. How ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising new way that giant embryonic cells divide—without relying on the classic “purse-string” ring long thought essential for splitting a cell in two. Studying ...

Behavioral assays linked these molecular disturbances to functional outcomes. Exposed fish displayed increased locomotor activity, heightened anxiety-like behavior, and altered learning performance, ...
