Small-molecule based fluorescent probes are increasingly important for the detection and
imaging of biological signaling molecules due to their simplicity, high selectivity and sensitivity…

Mammals cannot see light over 700 nm in wavelength. This limitation is due to the physical
thermodynamic properties of the photon-detecting opsins. However, the detection of naturally …

Background— Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) derived from blastocysts can propagate
indefinitely in culture while maintaining pluripotency, including the ability to differentiate …

Many forms of blindness result from the dysfunction or loss of retinal photoreceptors. Induced
pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) hold great potential for the modelling of these diseases or as …

Besides generating vision, light modulates various physiological functions, including mood.
While light therapy applied in the daytime is known to have anti-depressive properties, …

Spatial transcriptomics approaches have substantially advanced our capacity to detect the
spatial distribution of RNA transcripts in tissues, yet it remains challenging to characterize …

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) manifest enormous potential in promoting electromagnetic
wave (EMW) absorption thanks to the tailored components, topological structure, and high …

Herein, a high-performance porous biochar described as PBC KOH was successfully
synthesized by two-step pyrolysis of corn straw with chemical activation of KOH, and was …

Significant progress has been made in understanding selective laser melting (SLM) process
as well as fabrication of various materials using this technology. This paper covers the …

A subset of retinal ganglion cells has recently been discovered to be intrinsically photosensitive,
with melanopsin as the pigment. These cells project primarily to brain centres for non-…
