This occurs at a precise stage – cytokinesis – when the cell splits into two new daughter cells. It was observed by a team of researchers including Gilles Hickson, an assistant professor at the ...

A new study from scientists at the UNC School of Medicine has illuminated an important process that occurs during cell division and is a likely source of DNA damage under some circumstances, including ...

The basic structure of most animal and plants cells is shown below. All cells are produced from other cells by the process of cell division. Cell division occurs when one cell divides to produce two ...

Professor Jonathon Pines’s group is investigating how cells regulate cell division and divide genetic information evenly between cells when they separate. Our research focuses on how cells trigger ...

New findings could aid future development of more efficient therapeutic strategies in the context of regenerative medicine and aging.
