Tears seem simple, but the tiny glands that produce them are among the least understood organs in the human body. By growing ...

Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) arises from defective blood stem cells that progressively lose their normal functions.

Researchers discovered that a long-misunderstood protein plays a key role in helping chromosomes latch onto the right “tracks ...

What keeps our cells the right size? Scientists have long puzzled over this fundamental question, since cells that are too large or too small are linked to many diseases. Until now, the genetic basis ...
