Flash and Freeze-Fracture

ISTA researchers analyze brain region using new method. Fear and addiction exert significant influence within society. Managing them is often challenging, as they are driven by intricate neuronal circuits in…

Desert Ants: The Magnetic Field Calibrates the Navigation System

Desert ants find their way during an early learning phase with the help of the Earth’s magnetic field. The associated learning process leaves clear traces in their nervous system. This…

How fruit flies control the brain’s “steering wheel”

When we walk down the street, we have an internal sense of which way we are heading, from looking at street signals and physical landmarks, and also a sense of…

Newly discovered genetic malfunction causes rare lung disease

The macrophage is one of the body’s most important inhabitants. Meaning “big eater” in Greek, this immune cell consumes and digests problematic elements from microbes and cancer cells to dust…

Faulty DNA disposal system causes inflammation

Salk scientists outline mouse cell inflammation pathway from mitochondrial stress to leaking endosomes to immune system initiation, revealing new potential therapeutic targets to reduce inflammation in aging and disease. Cells…

Molecular manganese complex as superphotooxidant

Scientists developed a new molecular system made from the abundant element manganese for photooxidations. Highly reducing or oxidizing photocatalysts are a fundamental challenge in photochemistry. Only a few transition metal…
