This program applies basic scientific and engineering principles to the design, development and operation of large-scale, bio-based product manufacturing, such as food and pharmaceuticals. Such ...

This might be the beginning of arterial calcifications. It is an elekron microscopy image of calcified material forming deposits. This is the first time it was possible to show a biological process ...

The immune system provides an integral defense against cancer growth and progression. Activating an anti-tumor immune response relies on several biological steps that can ultimately result in the ...

Researchers from the University of Vienna discovered MISO bacteria that use iron minerals to oxidize toxic sulfide, creating energy and producing sulfate. This biological process reshapes how ...

Symbiosis, as a biological process, refers to the sustained and often co-evolved interaction between individuals of different species, encompassing mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism. It involves ...

Through the looking glass: Artist Stephanie Rentschler recently unveiled SlimeMoldCrypt, an interactive installation where art meets science by using biology to generate stronger encryption keys.
