How to improve your Biomarker Discovery Workflow with Laser Microdissection
Biomarkers can be used as indicators of certain diseases, such as cancer. The tumor microenvironment moved into the spotlight in this concern. It is in close interaction with the tumor itself.…Read article
Neurosurgery with Heads-up Display
In the following video interviews Prof. Dr. Raphael Guzman, Vice Chairman of the Department of Neurosurgery at the University Hospital in Basel, Switzerland, talks about his experience in heads-up…Read article
Studying Adipose Tissue Development and Expansion
This article discusses sharp, high-contrast imaging of whole mount adipose (fat) tissues specimens, which are thick and round (unsectioned), with a THUNDER Imager using Computational Clearing. Adipose…Read article
Study synaptic dynamics with millisecond precision in neurobiology
What if you could dissect the synaptic dynamics with millisecond precision? To resolve controversial questions in neurobiology employing new techniques for visualizing cellular activity is essential.…Read article
Evaluating Axon Regeneration After Brain or Spine Trauma of Mice
Damaged nerve regeneration was investigated using mouse spinal cord sections treated with compounds that counter axon growth inhibitor (AGI) proteins. The sections were screened to find active and…Read article
GLOW800 Augmented Reality Fluorescence in Aneurysm Treatment
This case study from Prof. Dr. Feres Chaddad talks about the treatment of unruptured MCA (middle cerebral artery) and PCOM (posterior communicating artery) aneurysms with microsurgical clipping. It…Read article
Coherent Raman Scattering Microscopy Publication List
CRS (Coherent Raman Scattering) microscopy is an umbrella term for label-free methods that image biological structures by exploiting the characteristic, intrinsic vibrational contrast of their…Read article
Cellular Motility: Microtubules, Motor Proteins and Tau-Proteins
Cellular motility is based on motor-proteins that can bind to filamentous scaffold proteins and – under consumption of ATP – can “crawl” on these filaments. This note is about proteins connected to…Read article
Bridging Structure and Dynamics at the Nanoscale through Optogenetics and Electrical Stimulation
Nanoscale ultrastructural information is typically obtained by means of static imaging of a fixed and processed specimen. However, this is only a snapshot of one moment within a dynamic system in…Read article
How to improve your RNA Analysis Workflow with Laser Microdissection
Brain research: Single neuron excision for RNA analysis - Improve your workflow with laser microdissection - Parkinson’s disease is a common progressive neurodegenerative disorder. It is connected…Read article
How to improve your Alzheimer Protein Analysis with Laser Microdissection
Brain Research: Collect pure starting material for proteomics - Improve your workflow with Laser Microdissection - Many brain diseases result from protein malfunction, misfolding and agglutination.…Read article
Researchers Find a “Digital” Mechanism Behind Neuronal Changes from Learning
Neurons react to learning and memory by activating synaptic connections. The mechanisms behind this fundamental process are complex and poorly understood. Researchers at Thomas Jefferson University…Read article
Interview with Dr. Shigeki Watanabe on Research in Synaptic Membrane Dynamics
Dr. Shigeki Watanabe, principle investigator of the department of Cell Biology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, held a workshop in Zürich, Switzerland on methods to…Read article
Botulinum Neurotoxin Type-A Enters a Non-Recycling Pool of Synaptic Vesicles
Neuronal communication relies on synaptic vesicles undergoing regulated exocytosis and recycling for multiple rounds of fusion. Whether all synaptic vesicles have identical protein content has been…Read article
