In a study recently published in the journal Nano Letters, researchers from Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), ...

Scientists used frequency-modulated atomic force microscopy to reveal the submolecular structure of microtubule (MT) inner ...

In a study, scientists challenge a fundamental tenet in neuroscience about the shape of axons -- the long, thin filaments radiating from nerve cells that transmit electrical signals from cell to cell ...

New research challenges traditional views on axon structure, presenting a "pearls-on-a-string" model where action potential ...

In a provocative new study, scientists challenge a fundamental tenet in neuroscience about the shape of axons -- the long, ...

Novel physicochemical approach to optical biosensing that leverages the unique properties of 1DZnO nanostructures. These ...

a process that took three hours of patience and precise observation under the microscope. Over the span of a week, Cisterna worked on creating samples that would allow him to capture the image he had ...
