Cells, the fundamental building blocks of life, are constantly subjected to a variety of mechanical forces within our bodies.

A team of researchers at NYU Abu Dhabi has uncovered a key mechanism that helps shape how our brains are wired, and what can ...

Researchers at NYU Abu Dhabi discovered how m6A methylation controls the production of essential proteins in neurons, crucial ...

Not only have researchers identified how a common cellular protein affects aging, but they’ve tweaked the genes that produce it in fruit flies, extending healthy lifespan by 25% to 30%. The ...

Thousands upon thousands of mitochondria exist inside each cell in our body. Essentially, these mitochondria function as an energy factory, supplying our body with 90% of the energy we require to ...

The technology could zero in on one spot in a cell’s genome, and then either snip out or insert new DNA. Dr. Shendure and his colleagues set out to use CRISPR to record a cell’s history.
