Optogenetics: A Conversation with Ed Boyden
In a few short years, optogenetics has gone from a glimmer in the eye in a handful of researchers to a viable technique used worldwide to study information processing in the brain. We recently caught...
Next-Generation IR Microscopy: The Devil Is in the Detail
One of the most important attributes of infrared spectroscopy is its ability to handle physically small samples or small features on samples. Important applications include forensic analysis of a...
Combining Second-Harmonic Generation with Multiphoton Imaging
Second-harmonic generation (SHG) is a method of imaging structures in tissue using a pulsed near-infrared laser. The technique can be combined with various methods of fluorescence imaging to deduce...
Body Vision: IR Applications and Lens Selection in Biomedical Settings
Although IR optics have long been used for military, surveillance and industrial applications, it is only recently that their full potential is being explored in biomedical settings. Common...
Characterization of Intraocular Lenses: Different Measurement Methods
Intraocular lenses (IOLs) are artificial implants used to replace the human eye crystalline lenses in patients with cataracts. The standard IOL is designed to match the patient’s eye to provide...
Telehealth: Seeing, and Treating, Patients at a Distance
Rhonda Johnston, a nurse practitioner, has a simple requirement when it comes to the technology that allows her to serve patients scattered across southern Colorado: “Our goal is to make sure...
EDITORIAL
New ripples rock optogenetics, IR microscopy
The circle of life in scientific research could perhaps be illustrated by the spreading ripple created by dropping a stone in a lake, the next ring wider than the one before. The rock – the discovery – lives on in its technological progeny, enabling researchers to widen their investigations, dropping new rocks, making new waves. Such is certainly the case with the nascent science of...

The new frontier for imaging resolution: 0.5 nm
Efforts to develop microscopes that offer “superresolution” capability have a new paragon: Investigators at Stanford University, led by US Secretary of Energy Steven Chu, have devised a...
Nanotubes put cancer under the spotlight
Blasting tumors with light from a laser is an experimental technique that has taken an important step forward, thanks to a team from Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center. The researchers...
Tel Aviv scientists put matter in its place
The ability to manipulate matter using lasers is enabling scientists at Tel Aviv University to develop innovative photonic devices. Dr. Yael Roichman and colleagues at the university’s school...
Hydrogen replacement improves fluorescent dyes’ detection, stability and shelf life
Investigators have increased the shelf life and detection ability of fluorescent probes that are necessary for studying a variety of inflammatory diseases, including cancer and atherosclerosis, by...

POST SCRIPTS
Your Prion Eyes
When you gaze into someone’s eyes, you can tell much about their character. It just so happens that you also might be able to tell whether they have a neurological disease. Jacob W. Petrich and his colleagues at Iowa State University in Ames have shown that basic noninvasive fluorescence spectroscopy can show whether animals have been infected with a form of transmissible spongiform...
