Abstract: A novel photoconductive semiconductor switch (PCSS) with a field-shielding conductor was designed to homogenize the electric field at the electrode edge, thereby enabling reliable triggering ...

Stem-cell research is the area of research that studies the properties of stem cells and their potential use in medicine. As stem cells are the source of all tissues, understanding their ...

It feels like the Splinter Cell remake has been on its way for a decent while now, which isn't helped by the fact it's been over two years since we heard anything official about the game.

Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little 'organs' inside cells that form compartments with individual functions. For example, ...

You probably learned about organelles, those little “organs” inside cells that form compartments with individual functions. For example, mitochondria produce energy, lysosomes recycle waste ...

Did you know that every single living thing is made up of teeny, tiny unit structures? You have more than 75 trillion of them in your body – they’re called cells and they are amazing! Today we are ...

Stem cells are specialized cells that have the potential to develop into not one but many different types of cell. They are unlike any other cell for three specific reasons: They are unspecialized, ...

So far there are few substances known to possess photoconducting properties with a quantum yield appreciably greater than unity. The chief ones are selenium, oxidized thallous sulphide, and the ...

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy is a way to get immune cells called T cells (a type of white blood cell) to fight cancer by changing them in the lab so they can find and destroy cancer ...

CD4 T helper cells are a type of white blood cell called a lymphocyte that serves an important role in your immune system. These cells help defend the body against infection by directing other "killer ...
