Grasping at straws
A human blood stem cell sitting on a bed of nanostraws. Nanostraws are hollow nanotubes forming stable, healthy pipelines into the interior of the cells. These pipelines can be used to inject genes and proteins allowing external control of cellular function.
Floating
The ability to migrate is one of the fundamental features of the cell, pivotal for both normal development or during cancer formation, when cells acquire the ability to migrate during tumor dissemination. This picture presents cells that went on a journey from their original location and were captured socializing with other expats.
Million dollars worth of antibodies
Collection of a decades worth of used antibodies.
