Single Cell Biology: Exploring Somatic Cell Behaviors, Competition and Selection in Chronic Disease [PDF]

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
The full range of cell functions is under-determined in most human diseases. The evidence that somatic cell competition and clonal imbalance play a role in non-neoplastic chronic disease reveal a need for a dedicated effort to explore single cell ...

The Current Biology Photomicrography Competition [PDF]

Current Biology, 2000
This image of a rat retina is the winning entry in this year’s Current Biology Photomicrography Competition. It was produced by Werner Zuschratter at the Leibniz Institute for Neurobiology in Magdeburg, Germany.The retrogradely traced ganglion cells — cell bodies, dendrites and axons — are coloured in yellow.

Promoting microbiology education through the iGEM synthetic biology competition [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2015
Synthetic biology has developed rapidly in the 21st century. It covers a range of scientific disciplines that incorporate principles from engineering to take advantage of and improve biological systems, often applied to specific problems. Methods important in this subject area include the systematic design and testing of biological systems and, here ...

Cancer Cell Biology: Myc Wins the Competition [PDF]

Current Biology, 2004
During Drosophila development, cells with elevated levels of the Myc oncoprotein grow faster than, and induce cell death in, nearby wild-type cells, suggesting how inappropriate Myc over-expression provides cells with a competitive advantage that can lead to cancer.

Cultivation of Synthetic Biology with the iGEM Competition

Journal of Advanced Computational Intelligence and Intelligent Informatics, 2013
The main goal of synthetic biology is to create new biological modules that augment or modify the behavior of living organisms in performing different tasks. These modules are useful in a wide range of applications, such as medicine, agriculture, energy and environmental remediation.
