“It is an exciting advance in our understanding of the malleability of memory,” said Elizabeth Phelps, a professor of psychology and neural science at New York University who was not involved in the ...

“A very tiny light-activated switch on the opposite side from the battery allows us to turn the device from its ‘off’ state to an ‘on’ state upon delivery of light that passes through the patient’s ...

A new light-activated catalyst has been developed for the photoinduced deracemization of tertiary and secondary alkyl halides, enabling the synthesis of single-enantiomer chiral molecules with ...

"By revealing how a light-activated switch can reshape cells in real time, we're uncovering basic design principles for how living systems self-organize and evolve shape," says the study's senior ...

To that end, chemical biologist Steven Verhelst of KU Leuven in Belgium and his PhD student Suravi Chakrabarty decided to use a technique called photocaging to make an inhibitor of caspases, enzymes ...

The pacemaker also has a light-activated switch, and this is paired with a small heart rate sensor that the patient wears on their chest. When the latter detects the patient's heart slowing below ...
