A cell’s morphology comprises vast amounts of information on cell health and differentiation state and yields insight into cell phenotype. Biologists utilize this information on a daily basis to aid ...

For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process can lead to cell death or diseases like cancer. A new study has shown how ...

Cell division is an essential process for all life on Earth, yet the exact mechanisms by which cells divide during early embryonic development have remained elusive—particularly for egg-laying species ...
