Andre Levchenko, newly designated as the John C. Malone Professor of Biomedical Engineering, combines experimental results with computational models to learn about the interactions of proteins and ...

Yale University scientists announced this week that they have made a crucial discovery about the spread of cancer cells. The discovery may lead to new methods for treating cancer, according to ...

A team of scientists led by Yale University systems biologist and biomedical engineer Andre Levchenko has developed a novel method for mapping the biochemical variability, or “noise,” in how human ...

Researchers from The Johns Hopkins University and other institutions have discovered a biochemical "clock" that appears to play a crucial role in the way information is sent from the surface of a cell ...

Drawing on lab experiments and computer studies, Johns Hopkins researchers have learned how a common protein delivers its warning message to cells when an infectious agent invades the body. The ...

WEST HAVEN >> Researchers at Yale University’s West Campus are teaming up to go deep within cells that make up a malignant tumor, looking for ways to fight cancer on the molecular level. At that scale ...

A miniature city for microbes constructed in the lab could shed light on how the buggers naturally form drug-resistant communities. The ability of microbes to resist drugs can lead to deadly strains, ...

A new study by researchers at Yale and Johns Hopkins University has discovered how asthmatic bronchial spasms — muscle contractions in the airway that cause difficulty breathing in asthma patients— ...

Researchers have used a small synthetic molecule to stimulate cells to move and change shape, bypassing the cells' usual way of sensing and responding to their environment. The experiment pioneers a ...

Johns Hopkins researchers from the Whiting School of Engineering and the School of Medicine have devised a micro-scale tool - a lab on a chip - designed to mimic the chemical complexities of the brain ...

Six years after Yale acquired West Campus to bolster the University’s biomedical research scope, permanent directorships at its six research institutes are almost filled. After a nearly two-year ...

Researchers have learned how a common protein delivers its warning message to cells when an infectious agent invades the body. Drawing on lab experiments and computer studies, Johns Hopkins ...
