Cornell researchers have used artificial intelligence to uncover a previously unknown way cells control how proteins move inside them, a process essential for growth, communication and movement, and one that is often disrupted in cancer.
Field Note
Brooks Crickard , assistant professor of molecular biology and genetics in Cornell’s College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, studies the mechanisms cells use to self-correct when DNA replication goes wrong, including the strategies enzymes use...
News
Cornell researchers developed a safer and more precise way to study how genes function in living tissues by refining a recently developed CRISPR-based genetic technique in fruit flies, enabling researchers to better study how genes contribute to...
