In a groundbreaking study on the synthesis of cellulose – a major constituent of all plant cell walls – a team of Rutgers University-New Brunswick researchers has captured images of the microscopic ...

For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process can lead to cell death or diseases like cancer. A new study has shown how ...

Scientists from Germany and Italy have uncovered details of the protective layer that surrounds the fine protrusions of cells ...

A team of engineers from RMIT’s Centre for Innovative Structures and Materials utilized biomimicry to develop a super-strong lattice structure that provides enhanced performance compared to ...

Scientists have found a way to study early embryonic development without real embryos. Using CRISPR, they programmed stem cells to self-organize into structures mimicking early embryos. The cells show ...

There is a trial of strength at the cellular level. Cells are in constant competition with each other and so eliminate ...

With the long-term goal of creating living cells from non-living components, scientists in the field of synthetic biology work with RNA origami. This tool uses the multifunctionality of the natural ...

Planning for projects can be difficult and time-consuming. This list of teacher-tested projects—complete with printable ...

One approach to organizing projects is to simply manage them within the existing functional organizational structure hierarchy of the organization. Once management decides to implement a project, the ...

Matrix management is a hybrid organizational structure in which a horizontal project management structure is “overlaid” on the normal functional hierarchy. In a matrix system, there are usually two ...

The film explores the structure and function of plant and animal cells using a microscope. It begins with observing onion cells, highlighting their components such as the cell wall, nucleus, and ...
