New ways to modulate cell activity remotely Cells are dynamic, fast-changing, complex, tiny, and often hard-to-see in environments that don’t always behave in predictable ways when exposed to external stimuli. Now, researchers led by Lukasz Bugaj of the School of Engineering and Applied Science have found new ways to modulate cell activity remotely.(Image: iStock/Maksim Tkachenko) New ways to modulate cell activity remotely Penn researchers use temperature to guide cellular behavior, promising better diagnostics and targeted therapies.
A less clumpy, more complex universe? A less clumpy, more complex universe? Researchers combined cosmological data from two major surveys of the universe’s evolutionary history and found that it may have become “messier and complicated” than expected in recent years.
