Up until recently, habituation -- a simple form of learning -- was deemed the exclusive domain of complex organisms with brains and nervous systems, such as worms, insects, birds, and mammals. But a ...

Researchers suggest "one daring idea" would be to apply the concept of habituation to the relationship between cancer and immunity.

A new study suggests that individual cells may exhibit learning-like behaviors, previously thought exclusive to organisms with nervous systems.

A dog learns to sit on command, a person hears and eventually tunes out the hum of a washing machine while reading … The ...

A new study demonstrates that even simple single-cell organisms, such as ciliates and amoebae, exhibit habituation, a basic ...

With this, researchers hope to find what factors are involved in sEV release from host cells. This will help advance our understanding of basic sEV biology and may aid in the development of new ...

Up until recently, habituation — a simple form of learning — was deemed the exclusive domain of complex organisms with brains and nervous systems, such as worms, insects, birds, and mammals. But a new ...

We all start our lives as symmetric balls of cells. In humans, during the first few weeks after fertilization, embryonic ...

This important work advances our understanding of DNA methylation and its consequences for susceptibility to DNA damage. This work presents evidence that DNA methylation can accentuate the genomic ...

Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) excels over the widely used fluorescence intensity imaging by allowing the measurement of absolute signal levels, independent of sensor concentration.
