'''Symbiotic nuclei''' were a part of [[Time Lord]] [[cell (biology)|cells]] that allowed for safe [[time travel]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Two Doctors (TV story)|The Two Doctors]]'') The nuclei connected a Time Lord's mind to their TARDIS, meaning ships like [[the Master's TARDIS]] and [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] also possessed symbiotic nuclei. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Evil One (audio story)|The Evil One]]'') TARDIS nuclei constantly updated [[the Matrix]] about their pilots. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Brink of Death (audio story)|The Brink of Death]]'')

Some symbiotic connections between Time Lords and TARDISes could be stronger than the Time Lord realises; as was the case with [[TARDIS (Prisoners of Fate)|the Doctor's first TARDIS]], which the Doctor abandoned on [[Gallifrey]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Prisoners of Fate (audio story)|Prisoners of Fate]])''

The symbiotic nuclei were sewn as recognition codes into a Time Lord's DNA upon admission at the [[Time Lord Academy]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Interference - Book One (novel)|Interference - Book One]]'') ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Christmas on a Rational Planet (novel)|Christmas on a Rational Planet]])'' They also enabled a Time Lord's ability to [[regenerate]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Love and War (novel)|Love and War]]'') It was believed that a Time Lord could only regenerate twelve times because the nuclei could only divide so much. [[The Valeyard]], however, claimed this was imposed by [[Rassilon]] to prevent a thirteenth regeneration and keep Time Lords from [[immortality]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Trial of the Valeyard (audio story)|Trial of the Valeyard]]'')

While recovering from [[regenerative collapse]] within his TARDIS, the [[Sixth Doctor]] used his symbiotic nuclei, combined with the TARDIS' [[telepathic circuits]], to construct a [[synaptic interface]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Piece of Mind (audio story)|Piece of Mind]]'')
