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 ...

Cells, the fundamental building blocks of life, are constantly subjected to a variety of mechanical forces within our bodies.

A new recipe, or design guidelines, for a self-strengthening muscle-like hydrogel has been developed through strategic integration of computational, information, and experimental research. The ...

As brain tumors grow, they must do one of two things: push against the brain or use finger-like extensions to invade and ...
