3 Reasons Why You Should Take "Pseudogenes" Seriously in Your Research

Protein-coding DNA, or “functional” genes, only accounts for up to 2% in the human genome. Until recently, the remaining 98% have been referred to as “junk DNA” for their putative noncoding feature. The name itself implies that junk

Cancer is a collection of over 200 diseases where the only common denominator is rogue cells^1,2.  The ways in which a cell can go rogue is so varied that cancer has its own separate biology where order and normalcy are not readily apparent.  Cancer does not even have to be solid.  Indeed, blood

Hello fellow cell enthusiasts! We at team ScienCell just got back from Baltimore, MD, where we attended ToxExpo 2017, the Society of Toxicology’s annual conference. While the cold weather was quite a shock to us Californians, it was such a treat getting to experience what Baltimore had to offer. After
