To demonstrate the method, the team printed a range of tiny shapes, including a 10-micrometer elephant, laboratory logos, ...

Scientists have long known that cellular membranes vary in thickness, but measuring those differences inside actual cells has ...

The exchange of cells between a mother and a fetus is a well-documented phenomenon that scientists have known about for more than 50 years. It's called microchimerism, and it goes both ways: every ...

Custom polymer structures can now be 3D printed inside living cells using laser-based fabrication, opening paths to intracellular sensors, cell tracking tags, and embedded microlasers.

Cells do more than carry out chemical reactions. New theoretical work suggests they may also generate usable electrical ...

A new twist on two-photon polymerization has been used to deliver objects, including lasers and an elephant, directly into ...

Researchers have developed a way to 3D print custom micrometer-sized structures directly into the interior of living cells.

KAIST researchers have developed a way to reprogram immune cells already inside tumors into cancer-killing machines. A drug ...

Diamond nanoparticles containing nitrogen-vacancy centers can now monitor cellular metabolism in real time, targeting specific organelles while tracking particle movement inside living cells.

Within tumors in the human body, there are immune cells (macrophages) capable of fighting cancer, but they have been unable to perform their roles properly due to suppression by the tumor. KAIST ...
