Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is the movement of genetic material from one organism to another. In this article, we will discuss what HGT is, how it is used in research, how to detect it and the threat it poses to humanity.

Eukaryotic cells form the foundation of complex life, their defining feature being the presence of membrane-bound organelles. This article details the structure of eukaryotic cells and provides examples of eukaryotes.

Bacteriophages are viruses that selectively target and kill bacteria. They are abundant, commonly occurring natural entities that play crucial roles in regulating bacterial populations and influencing microbial ecosystems, including human health.

The complexity of the TME in vivo limits the conclusions that can be drawn from in vivo models. Optimizing cell culture models to mimic the TME is vital to understanding cancer progression and the development of optimized therapies.

Recent studies have discovered microplastics inside human organs, the brain and the blood. But does this accumulation of plastic have any adverse effect on our health? Experts suggest that more research is still needed.

Endometrial organoids, 3D cell cultures mimicking the endometrium, offer new opportunities in endometriosis research. These models are key in studying drug targets, fertility issues and gynecological cancers.

Around 50–90% of brain tumor patients that survive at least 6 months after radiotherapy experience some form of cognitive decline, such as memory loss. In a systematic review, we examined damage to the normal brain tissue after brain irradiation.

This article explores common challenges faced by flow cytometry users, such as fluorochrome selection, the utility of tandem dyes and managing spectral overlap, to help optimize your panel design for more reliable results.

Immuno-oncology and cell-based treatments, which harness the body's own immune system to combat illnesses like cancer, have emerged as some of the most promising areas of study. This article explores how cell therapy is evolving.

This article will cover the basic theory behind logistic regression, the types of logistic regression, when to use them and take you through a worked example.
