Tessellations aren’t just eye-catching patterns—they can be used to crack complex mathematical problems. By repeatedly ...

Organisms start from one cell, which divides, again and again, building 3D tissues into a body. Epithelial cells form linings, like the skin and outer layers of organs, and lay the foundation for ...

Epithelial cells, which cover the surfaces of many organs, adopt a previously undescribed geometric shape - the scutoid - so that the tissue can curve, scientists have found. The epithelial cells ...

Scientists have just defined a new shape called the scutoid (SCOO-toid) while studying epithelial cells, the building blocks of embryos that eventually end up forming our skin and lining our organs ...

The curved shape of a zebrafish egg causes unequal cell divisions, creating larger cells near the animal pole and smaller ...

Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...

Circles, triangles and squares. One of the first things we learn as children are basic geometric shapes. And they stay with us throughout our lives. Maybe it’s that sense of familiarity that makes ...

Each week, Mansion Global tackles a topic with an elite group of designers from around the world who work on luxury properties. This week we look at how to use geometric shapes in your home’s decor.

The only thing constant about trends is that they come and go — which is why I always say to stick to what you love regardless of what is currently in at the moment. That being said, who doesn’t love ...
