By mapping the subcellular architecture and protein interactions within cells, researchers can better understand how mutations contribute to pediatric cancers and other conditions.

Our immune systems develop to recognize what is foreign within our bodies. As immune cells are generated in the bone marrow ...

The Computational Cell Biology, Anatomy and Pathology PhD program is a unique connector between the basic and clinical sciences. New technology has enabled tools for examination of biological ...

This result suggested a higher activity for most of the “private” genes in the thymus when compared to the peripheral compartments. Altogether, we provide a unique resource to inform future studies, ...

During infections, the immune system needs to distinguish foreign antigens that are expressed by invading bacteria and viruses from self-antigens that are expressed by cells of the body. If not, the ...

Scientists have developed a revolutionary AI ‘fingerprint’ technology that can accurately show how cancer cells respond to new drugs, by simply observing changes to their shape. The new technology, ...

You can increase white blood cells (WBCs) by taking certain medications and eating immune-boosting foods, like yogurt, lean protein foods, antioxidant-rich vegetables, and more. Maintaining a normal ...

The Division of Cell and Molecular Biology studies the complex interplay of genes, proteins and biological processes that drive the development and growth of cancers. Understanding the many different ...

Donor-Specific B Cells in Transplantation. The major goal of this project is to determine the properties of donor-specific B cells in recipients that maintain stable graft function and in those that ...

The thymus, a primary lymphoid organ, produces the T cells of the immune system. Originating from the 3 rd pharyngeal pouch during embryogenesis, this organ functions throughout life. Yet, ...
