In a groundbreaking experiment, researchers have brought a mouse to life with the help of a single-celled organism that ...

Scientists uncovered the "third state" beyond life and death, where cells defy boundaries after an organism's demise.

Life and death are traditionally viewed as opposites. But the emergence of new multicellular life-forms from the cells of a ...

Remarkably, the success of a selection of the choanoflagellate's genes in some as complex and multicellular as a mouse gives ...

In fact, there were only single-celled organisms that could move around through the waters of the oceans. Needless to say, ...

Multicellular life forms that emerge from the cells of a dead organism suggest that a "third state" lies beyond life and death. The discovery has raised fresh questions about what it means to die ...

Armed with the ability to accept all cells as its own, comb jellies can merge with others to survive. Here’s how it works.

“These molecular tools are older than animal stem cells themselves.” In addition to learning how we evolved to be multicellular, Jauch said, the understanding of this natural evolution can ...

This work is published in Nature Communications in the paper, “Control of spatio-temporal patterning via cell density in a multicellular synthetic gene circuit.” “This paper represents ...
