Intercalation and deintercalation of lithium ions at electrode surfaces are central to the operation of lithium-ion batteries. Yet, on the most important composite cathode surfaces, this is a rather ...

Autofluorescent proteins have become indispensable in our quest to visualize molecular events in living cells. Further progress in the visualization and quantification of all biochemical activities of ...

Brain functions stem from and rely on electrical signals created and propagated by neurons. As such, scientists measure electrical signals to study neuronal function at both single-cell and systemic ...

Tsukuba, Japan—In our routines from waking up to commute, work, and leisure, neurons are active and processing complex matters. This research aimed to comprehend the complexities of the brain by ...

With labeling tools that add fluorescent tags, researchers could once see about four or five genes in a cell. Updates to that technique by scientists at Caltech will now enable the visualization of ...

University of Alberta professor Robert Campbell has led the development of a near-infrared fluorescent indicator for visualizing activity in neurons. A new, groundbreaking tool for visualizing neural ...

The Coronavirus pandemic has forced the world to stay at home. Pools and gyms are shut, as are schools, colleges and offices. While most of us can’t physically get into the pool and train, there are ...
