OXFORD, UK – A new set of methods allows experimental interaction with biological systems composed of many interacting cell types, such as neural circuits in the brain. Researchers at the University of Oxford have used light to manipulate the memories of fruit...
3-D PV Cell Folds, Travels
ATLANTA, Nov. 5, 2009 – A new technology for growing nanostructures on optical fibers can be used to make 3-D photovoltaic systems foldable and portable, no longer confined to traditional locations such as rooftops.
Scope-Headed Rats Roam Free
TÜBINGEN, Germany, Nov. 4, 2009 – By building a tiny laser microscope small enough to mount on a rat’s head, researchers found a way to solve the puzzle of recording meaningful signals from brain cells that calculate perception and attention while the subject is in motion.
T Cell Trigger: Sheer Force
BOSTON, Nov. 3, 2009 – An array of techniques including optical tweezers were used to find the "switch" that can swiftly change a T cell – a white blood cell that patrols the bloodstream and organs for signs of disease – from jury to executioner. Revealing this "missing...
Optical Trap Holds Viruses
BARCELONA, Spain, Oct. 22, 2009 – A Spain-Canada research collaboration developed a new method to gently trap, manipulate and study tiny, active objects as minuscule as viruses without inflicting any damage. The team demonstrated that it is possible to use the force of light to hold...
Molecules Made Mini Lasers
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Oct. 21, 2009 -- A new optical microscopy technique squeezes photons out of nonfluorescent molecules to provide 3-D images of living cells and tissues for applications in medical imaging and biological research.
Cells Respond to Laser Light
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 15, 2009 – For the first time, researchers have imported a light-controlled “on-off switch” from plants into a mammalian cell to instantly control a variety of cell functions by creating a hybrid protein that causes mouse cells to move in response to laser...
Cell Interactions Revealed
EUGENE, Ore., July 23, 2009 -- New findings that suggest putting lipids and other cell membrane components on manufactured surfaces to control like-charge attraction could lead to new classes of self-assembling materials for use in precision optics, nanotechnology, electronics...
Imaging at 6 million fps
LOS ANGELES, May 1, 2009 – Engineers at UCLA have developed a (video) camera that captures images in real time at 6 million fps, or 1000 times faster than its predecessors. It may be used for flow cytometry to diagnose cancer.
