From why it was created to whether it’s alive, here’s what to know about SpudCell, the latest advance in synthetic biology.

Scientists say they have built a cell from scratch for the first time that can feed, grow and replicate like a natural cell.

They’re in skincare, lip glosses and weight-loss drugs – but also in ‘grey-market’ injectables where some people are buying ...

The reefs scattered throughout the tropics arose only after algae took up full-time residence in coral cells, supplying corals with abundant food and enabling them to build extensive shallow-water ...

Scientists built a synthetic cell that combines more lifelike properties than ever before — proof of concept that it’s possible to bring nonliving materials to life, or something close to it, in the ...
