Not all DNA looks like the familiar twisted ladder. Sometimes, parts of our genetic code fold into unusual shapes. One such ...

Programmed cell death serves as a critical defense mechanism during viral infection. The kinases RIPK1 and RIPK3, central ...

The human brain, like the brain of other mammals, is known to start developing before birth, via a coordinated sequence of ...

The pyramids are some of the most fascinating structures on Earth, and new light keeps being shone on the wonders of the ancient world. However, one lesser known ‘pyramid’ is hidden away in the Amazon ...

Neuroscientists can now make precise genetic tweaks to the neurons that are most affected by brain diseases such as Parkinson ...

These boutons innervate equally complex structures on the proximal apical dendrites of CA3 pyramidal cells, called “complex spines” or “thorny excrescences,” a name that reflects the similarity to ...

“Every single cell can have a different chromosome structure,” Cheng, a Curators’ Distinguished Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, said. “Our tool helps scientists ...

houses what is widely considered the oldest known human-made structure: a stone wall constructed approximately 23,000 years ago, predating the Great Pyramid of Kheops by approximately 16,000 years.

we propose the Cross-Level Pyramid Pooling Module, which captures contextual information between different levels in the network to extract relevant features of cardiac structures. Our method achieves ...

Abstract: A data structure for image processing is presented that is conceptually a pyramid of hexagonal levels, each level composed of equilateral triangles. Physically, it is implemented as a ...
