It is its own container, he says. Simple model, complicated structure To visualize this dynamic network of tubules, Westrate, of Calvin University, took advantage of a property of cells from a line ...

Analyzing cells or other structures is one of the most challenging tasks for researchers working in microscopy and is an important task for both basic research in biology and medical diagnostics.

Then, one day, that wilderness of simple cells cooked up something more complex: the ancestor of all plants, animals and fungi alive today, a cell type known to us as the eukaryote. The eukaryote’s ...
