David Solecki, PhD, St. Jude Department of Developmental Neurobiology identified a “coincidence detection circuit” responsible for the migration of mature neuronal cells from the germinal zone and ...

Genetic engineers can design and assemble sophisticated gene circuits to program cells with new functions, but important signaling molecules can become diluted as these cells grow and divide, causing ...

Bioengineers have developed a new construction kit for building custom sense-and-respond circuits in human cells. The research could revolutionize therapies for complex conditions like autoimmune ...

Pretein design researcher Yulai Liu holds an enlarged 3D printed model from his team's efforts to design functioning calcium channels entirely from scratch. He is standing in David Baker's lab at the ...

The design of synthetic developmental programs for multicellular mammalian systems is a cornerstone of synthetic biology. The programs hinge on the construction of gene regulatory circuits that ...
