Scientists transferred light-harvesting proteins into yeast for the first time, shining a light on the past lives of eukaryotic cells.

Scientists around the world investigate how bat immune systems cope with viral attacks and how this information could be used to keep humans safe.

A growing branch of research on how plants use exosomes to interact with their environment is opening up a new field of plant biology.

Bioengineered bacteria sneak past solid tumor defenses to guide CAR T cells’ attacks.

Sequences for the model organism and two of its kin reveal how these plants got their oversized genomes.

Raising one evolutionary question after another, Brandon Gaut has harvested a crop of novel findings about how plant genomes evolve.

The Scientist spoke with Jonathan Kagan about his idea that immune cells respond to “errors” made by unsuccessful pathogens, not the pathogens themselves.

The scientific community bid farewell to researchers who furthered the fields of molecular biology, virology, sleep science, and immunology, among others.
