What you can do about the massive data breach that probably exposed all of your personal info
A recent data breach exposed sensitive information including social security numbers for billions of people globally, potentially leading to a significant increase in identity theft and cybercrimes. Here's what you need to know, and what you should d.....»»
Chromatin structure found to play a key role in canine social behavior evolution
A study on dogs found that chromatin's spatial structure has a significant role in the evolution of social behavior. Chromatin, the compact form of DNA, not only packages genetic material but also plays a crucial role in gene regulation......»»
New cobalt complex triggers ferroptosis in cancer cells
In programmed cell death, certain signaling molecules initiate a kind of suicide program to cause cells to die in a controlled manner. This is an essential step to eliminate damaged cells or to control the number of cells in certain tissues, for exam.....»»
Advance in stem cell therapy: New technique for manipulating stem cells opens door to novel treatments
A new technique developed by McGill researchers for mechanically manipulating stem cells could lead to new stem cell treatments, which have yet to fulfill their therapeutic potential......»»
International team discovers key protein that helps cells maintain their identity
A discovery regarding Mrc1 (Mediator of Replication Checkpoint 1)—a fission yeast protein involved in DNA replication—has been published in Cell. The discovery is the result of an international research collaboration, led by Professors Genevieve.....»»
