EDITORIAL
Exciting fluorophores In the early iterations of microfluidic technology, researchers and health care providers relied on the techniques to identify a handful of biomarkers by manipulating bodily fluids through microchannels. However, optofluidics — a subset of the technology in which increasingly sophisticated components such as lasers and LEDs, detectors, and lenses are utilized — can provide the...

Researchers become less blind about bats Contrary to the popular belief and saying that a person can be “as blind as a bat,” bats themselves are not actually blind. Indeed, as nocturnal hunters, their eyes adapt to low-light conditions better than human eyes do. To supplement their good bat vision, most of the perky-eared, flying critters use echolocation to enhance their hunting skills and to help them employ evasive...
