There is a trial of strength at the cellular level. Cells are in constant competition with each other and so eliminate diseased or unwanted cells. Cell competition is therefore a central principle for ...

Shortly after Rutherford’s discovery of the nucleus, the Danish physicist Niels Bohr began to attack this problem using quantum principles. He harnessed an idea introduced by Max Planck in 1900 ...

Cells are in constant competition with each other and so eliminate diseased or unwanted cells. Cell competition is therefore a central principle for maintaining the health of tissues and organs.

New research challenges the classical interpretation of cell competition, revealing the importance of mechanical force.

An international team of researchers, including experts from the Max-Planck-Zentrum für Physik und Medizin (MPZPM), the Institut Jacques Monod (CNRS, UP Cité, France), and the Niels Bohr ...
