For decades, dogma dictated that the immune system consisted of two separate branches. Cells of the innate system respond rapidly to molecular patterns shared by a broad array of pathogens. Meanwhile, ...

Researchers have developed a new type of memory cell that can both store information and do high-speed, high-efficiency calculations. The memory cell enables users to run high-speed computations ...

However, details of the intervening steps, as researchers have learned in the past 65 years, are quite complex — certain cells carry the flu antigen to the immune system, specific immune cells respond ...

Cortical Labs, a startup based in Australia, has developed what it describes as a "code-deployable biological computer." Called CL1, the technology is a type of synthetic biological intelligence ...

A five-year, $18.5 million grant will allow University of Alabama at Birmingham researchers to investigate T and B tissue-resident memory cells, known as TRM and BRM cells, in three unique sites — ...
