A group of Penn scientists has developed a new method to remotely control engineered cells inside the human body using heat.
These light-sensitive proteins don’t just sit there looking pretty, they’re constantly communicating with different types of skin cells, orchestrating everything from healing wounds to protect ...
The point is that we generally consider light to be good, safe, even comforting. Yet when it comes to our skin, things are a ...
The Gonzales Lab at UNR Med, led by Albert Gonzales, Ph.D., assistant professor of physiology and cell biology, spearheaded ...
The processing of optical information in the retina of the eye, where the light-sensitive photoreceptors and the first nerve cells are located, is one of the most energy-intensive processes in the ...
Imagine being at a big marquee event at an arena, like the Super Bowl, with the roar of the crowd, the smell of hot dogs, and a sea of jerseys all merging into one chaotic blur.
These systems combine chemical molecules, optics, and genetically modified proteins to precisely control protein activities at specific locations in cells using light-sensitive small molecules.
