New detection system for viral infections helps vaccine and drug development
Out of the US, a newly developed a rapid, stain-free, and automated viral plaque detection system enabled by holography and deep learning, is a cost-effective way of observing the formation of viral plaques caused by viral infections over a layer of cells.
Extraocular muscles may hold key to defensive mechanisms against ALS
According to Swedish study, muscle fibres found in extraocular muscles seem to be resistant and even increase in proportion in those with ALS. This offers new treatment avenues for slowing down the disease.
Neurotransmitter receptor patterns can separate sensory and cognitive networks
Neurotransmitter receptor patterns define key organisational principles in the brain, UK scientists have discovered.
