New algorithm makes maps of gene activity easier to compare while preserving cell-level detail

Landmark map of human brain’s gene activity holds clues to Alzheimer’s disease and more

Virus-like particles enable gene activity tracking over time in the same cells

Mathematicians have discovered a set of equations capable of untangling the distortions caused by singularities in maps. The equations can help determine if a singularity is a removable distortion, like those that exist at the North and South Poles in a two-dimensional map, or real, like a shockwave
