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

New work demonstrates how neural circuits in the brain and muscles of the face work together to respond physically to social cues.

Study demonstrates that the Homer1 gene improves focus by reducing "noise" in the prefrontal cortex, with implications for the study of ADHD and other attention disorders.

New study reveals the molecular brake that lets embryonic stem cells enter suspended animation, while retaining the ability to develop normally—which could shed light on abnormal cell growth in humans.

In experiments with mice, the new molecule accomplished the same job at a hundredth of the dose.

Researchers discovered new characteristics of a T cell receptor that’s essential to a variety of cutting-edge T cell immunotherapies.

Researchers discovered that a crucial first step in the signaling system operates differently than previously thought, an insight that could lead to the next generation of treatments.

Across fields as diverse as evolution, mechanobiology, and antibiotic discovery, here are some of the intriguing discoveries that came out of Rockefeller in 2025.

Researchers found that pairing the antibiotic rifampicin with a second compound turned multidrug resistance into a weakness—providing proof of concept for using basic science to design life-saving dual-drug strategies.

Researchers created this first-of-its kind map by merging 40 ant brains into one.
