Behind the Paper
The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
Reduction of the illumination power for high-speed multiphoton microscopy
An adaptive excitation source enables two- and three-photon imaging of the awake mouse brain with high spatial and temporal resolution at 30-fold-reduced laser power relative to conventional approaches.
Geographical variation and associated factors of childhood measles vaccination in Ethiopia: a spatial and multilevel analysis
In Ethiopia, the spatial pattern of MCV1 coverage is vital. It reveals geographic disparities and high-risk, under-vaccinated clusters. Understanding this helps target interventions, prevent deadly measles outbreaks, boost child survival, and ensure equitable protection for vulnerable populations.
Conducting CRISPR/dCas9 screens to identify drug resistance mechanisms in neuroblastoma
To wait for resistance to drugs to develop in patients and then identify why it happened, will lead to a deadly lag in the design of salvage therapies or indeed preventative treatment approaches.
