Scientists have uncovered a new way embryonic cells divide when conventional mechanisms fail. Cell division underpins all ...

Tarun Kapoor is tackling a deceptively tricky biochemical challenge: how to speed up the internal machinery of living cells.

The presented findings are important for the field of cell-cycle control. They provide new insights into the origin of cell size variability in budding yeast. The strength of evidence is solid.
