It’s a longstanding question in biology: How do cells know when to progress through the cell cycle? A team of MIT and HMS researchers has precisely measured the growth rates of single cells, allowing them to answer that fundamental question. HMS authors are: Amit Tzur, research fellow in systems biology; Paul Jorgensen, a former HMS postdoc; and Marc Kirschner, the John Franklin Enders University Professor of Systems Biology and chair of the Department of Systems Biology.
