In a world first that challenges what we thought we knew about biology, scientists have successfully engineered animal cells that can photosynthesize. The breakthrough promises to revolutionize ...

Scientists in Japan have created hybrid plant-animal cells, essentially making animal cells that can gain energy from sunlight like plants. The breakthrough could have major benefits for growing ...

Chloroplasts, the parts of cells that allow plants and algae to photosynthesize, are thought to have originated more than 1 billion years ago, when photosynthetic cyanobacteria lived symbiotically ...

Scientists found nanoplastics entering farm animal cells, raising new concerns for food safety and animal health.

Energy-making chloroplasts from algae have been inserted into hamster cells, enabling the cells to photosynthesize light, according to new research in Japan. It was previously thought that combining ...

The way Dr. Paul Niehans, a stony-faced, ramrod-straight Swiss physician told it, his theory and practice of “cellular therapy” sounded plausible enough. Thirty years ago he had begun transplanting ...

A July 26 Facebook post (direct link, archive link) makes a claim about the “cell-cultivated” meat now approved for sale in the U.S. "The lab grown 'chicken' that was recently approved to be sold at ...
