(A) Illustration of myelinated nerve fiber and saltatory conduction of action potential. An example of PNS myelinated nerve fiber is shown. (B) Illustration of transverse section of myelinated axon at ...
Hidden inside every organ, microscopic fibers form a scaffolding that quietly shapes how we move, think, and heal. For the ...
A simple light-based method is uncovering hidden fiber networks inside the brain and body, even in tissue slides over 100 years old.
A newly developed imaging technique has enabled scientists to map microscopic fiber networks in the brain, muscles, and bones ...
Scientists tend to describe DNA as a long string. But this metaphor fails to accurately describe the complex three-dimensional structure that DNA adopts within our cells. In truth, our DNA could more ...
Geometry often plays a central role in fiber performance across various applications. Shape factors such as length (for example, the longest size of the fiber), width (for example, the shortest size ...
Miniaturized sensors mounted upon optical fibers are widely recognized as an important future solution to instant and point-of-care medical diagnosis and on-site agricultural produce inspection.
