Around five years ago, a team of researchers proved that single-celled organisms have more intellect and instincts than they are usually credited for. In the study, researchers undertook Stentor ...

This article explores the transformative potential and challenges of single cell omics in advancing our understanding of ...

This engineered genome will help experts tailor organisms to fit the needs of their ever-changing environments.

Evolution was fueled by endosymbiosis, cellular alliances in which one microbe makes a permanent home inside another. For the ...

A small but mighty single-celled organism that dates back 500 million years punches far above its weight when it comes to ...

A new study sheds light on how a species of foraminifera, single-celled organisms found in almost all marine habitats, thrives in a dark, oxygen-free environment. Most life on Earth relies on the ...

Technical variability can have a significant impact on single-cell experiments, affecting the accuracy and reproducibility of ...

This study provides a valuable new resource to investigate the molecular basis of the particular features characterizing the pipefish embryo. The authors found both unique and shared gene expression ...

A method for genetically barcoding Drosophila is developed and used to tag defined cell populations in vivo for single-cell transcriptomics experiments and to enable multiplexed behavioral analysis.
