This useful study presents a biologically realistic, large-scale cortical model of the rat's non-barrel somatosensory cortex, investigating synaptic plasticity of excitatory connections under varying ...

Nanoparticles (NPs) are materials whose dimensions range from 1 to 1,000 nanometers (nm). Due to their nano-scale dimensions ...

This structure directly connects laboratory-produced CDNs to nanoparticles made of poly (beta amino esters), or pBAEs, making the compound more stable and potent when injected into the body ...

During a virtual scientific conference, Travesset met the project’s lead scientists from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, at which point he was not certain this new chiral structure could ...

Mike Krapfl, News Service, 515-294-4917, Researchers have built a unique, long-sought structure from gold nanoparticles. Alex Travesset of Iowa State and the Ames National Laboratory has the equations ...

Protein function and activity is determined by both their assembly and secondary structure. Abnormalities related to either protein aggregation or secondary structure can lead to neurodegenerative ...
