The spliceosome is a dynamic macromolecular machine responsible for the precise excision of introns from pre-messenger RNA (pre-mRNA), thereby enabling the accurate formation of mature mRNA. Comprised ...

Using an algorithm they call the Krakencoder, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine are a step closer to unraveling how the brain’s wiring supports the way we think and act. The study, published June ...

Healthy aging induces parallel changes in brain functional activity and structural morphology, yet the interplay between these changes remains unclear. Prof. Yuhui Du's team at the College of Computer ...
