A new study led by Marco Fumasoni, principal investigator at Fundação GIMM, shows that evolution can substantially reduce ...

Cancer does not develop overnight. It can take decades for cancer‐promoting changes in the genome to eventually lead to the formation of a malignant tumor. Researchers at the German Cancer Research ...

Example of a spatial configuration of a 2D expanding and evolving colony of cells, a typical simulation representing an example with 3 mutations. The individual graphs represent different snapshots in ...

The model does not rely on the infinite sites approximation (that a specific mutation newly arises in only one cell at any instant) in contrast to related models. The results become increasingly ...

Naked mole-rats (NMRs) are best known for their extreme longevity and cancer resistance, suggesting that their immune system might have evolved to facilitate these phenotypes. Natural killer (NK) and ...

The awe-inspiring process of cell division can turn a fertilized egg into a baby – or a cancerous cell into a malignant tumor. With so much at stake, nature keeps it tightly controlled in a process ...

Under microscopes, scientists found that giant single-cell organisms were able to vacuum up more food when they are stuck together. By Jack Tamisiea For a creature made up of only a single cell, the ...

Thought too hard to do, a new platform evolved proteins in mammalian cells, which could help researchers design drugs that work better in humans. “There are many, many examples, both published and ...
