Ischemia and reperfusion can cause death and illness. The interruption of the arterial blood supply to a single organ or to multiple organs leads to hypoxic injury and cell death. In cases in which ...

Scientists at Feinberg are reshaping scientific understanding of the cell's tiniest components—structures once thought to be static, now revealed to be dynamic engines of cellular life. As they probe ...

Fluorescent proteins have revolutionized science, enabling researchers to tag and visualize individual molecules in living cells, tissues, and animals. Using these tools, researchers have watched ...

Within a tiny plankton, an even smaller cell has been found living an unexpectedly virus-like existence, challenging what it means to be alive. The line between living and inanimate has traditionally ...

Call it cellular life support for dead pigs. A complex web of pumps, sensors and artificial fluid can move oxygen, nutrients and drugs into pigs’ bodies, preserving cells in organs that would ...

Axel Nimmerjahn helped develop a new technology for imaging cells, called visible-spectrum antigen-stabilizable fluorescent nanobodies, which provides a versatile platform for imaging and studying ...
