Research has shown that gut microbes can influence several aspects of the host’s life, including aging. Given the complexity and heterogeneity of the human gut environment, elucidating how a specific ...
Researchers at the Center for Cognition and Sociality, within the Institute for Basic Science (IBS, South Korea), have developed a new optogenetic tool to visualize and control the position of ...
It’s a pretty universal opinion that mosquitoes are a pest of monumental proportions that serve little function globally, save to spread disease. However, investigators at the Weizmann Institute of ...
Understanding how the brain works requires more than studying single regions in isolation. The cerebral cortex depends on long-distance connections that link specialized areas into coordinated ...
A new state-of-the-art brain imaging technique could, someday, make fMRI neuroimaging technology and current optogenetic methods seem antiquated. This week, a team of Caltech researchers from the ...
The function of the lower urinary tract — to store and periodically eliminate urine — seems simple, but its neuronal control is complex and not fully understood, and dysfunction is common. Functional ...
Scientists took a light-sensitive protein derived from mosquitoes and used it to devise an improved method for investigating the messages that are passed from neuron to neuron in the brains of mice.
Optogenetics offers a direct way to manipulate gut bacterial metabolism in a temporally, quantitatively and spatially controlled manner and enhance host fitness. Research has shown that gut microbes ...
