The aging liver undergoes dramatic changes in its functional organization and other key attributes, which may underpin its increasing susceptibility to disease, according to a study led by ...

Understanding the interaction between light and matter at the smallest scales (angstrom scale) is essential for advancing technology and materials science. Atomic-scale structures, such as defects in ...

To separate geometry from chemistry, we converted snapshots from the microscope into a computer model using a 3D Voronoi network – a pattern that mimics the walls between bubbles in a foam. Think of ...

Alzheimer’s may be driven by more than just plaques—scientists have discovered 200+ hidden proteins that could be quietly harming the brain.

CRISPR construct to genetically ablate the GABA transporter GAT3 in the mouse visual cortex, with effects on population-level neuronal activity. This work is important, as it sheds light on how GAT3 ...

Characterization of intracellular synapse heterogeneity aides to understand the intricate computational logic of neuronal circuits. Despite recent advances in connectomics, the spatial patterns of ...

Studying how cells work inside a living body is one of the most powerful ways to understand health and disease. However, looking deep inside live tissue is extremely challenging, especially when ...

A founding Fantastic Four member just debuted some new powers, as Marvel makes a permanent change to the iconic team. What you need to know.

A surprising new study has uncovered over 200 misfolded proteins in the brains of aging rats with cognitive decline, beyond the infamous amyloid and tau plaques long blamed for Alzheimer’s. These ...

For decades, the story of Alzheimer's research has been dominated by a battle between A-beta and tau amyloids, both of which ...

New study suggests more than 200 types of misfolded proteins could be associated with age-related cognitive decline ...

This paper presents the development of a portable microscope with dielectric liquid lens. This device provides the tunable working distance from 7.6 mm to 6.7 mm by adjusting the voltage of dielectric ...
