Protein function and activity is determined by both their assembly and secondary structure. Abnormalities related to either protein aggregation or secondary structure can lead to neurodegenerative diseases. In a new study, an international research team reveal how fluoride nanoparticles, materials used in in vivo imaging, affect the assembly and structure of the amyloid β protein. Their results present a step towards better treatment and prevention of neurologic disorders like Alzheimer’s disease. Self-assembly, or the association of individual units of a material into ordered structures or patterns, is a phenomenon of great research interest for materials scientists. One prominent example of…
In 2021, The White Lotus brought us irony. It brought us disgust. It brought us Jennifer Coolidge sobbing into a box of ashes and Alexandra Daddario making every journalist question their body of work. And while we must bid goodbye to the swaying palm trees and ominously yellow-tinged sky of the Hawaiian resort, HBO has confirmed the vacation need only take a slight detour: The social satire is coming back for a second season, this time in a new locale and with a new cast of VIPs.Per Deadline, season 2 of The White Lotus will leave the drama of the…
The 44-mm Watch5 usually hovered around 20 percent after I woke up the next day, and that’s with two auto-tracked walks, checking and responding to notifications, GPS navigation when I rode my electric scooter, and sleep tracking. Thirty minutes of charging from 20 percent brought it up to 70 percent, which is good enough, but I wish it recharged even faster. The Watch5 Pro fares a little better, usually lasting to the end of day two after the same level of activity on a single charge.These numbers are better than the Apple Watch’s battery life, but marginally so. I should…

I got a little bit obsessed with ballet in the summer of 2014, after I read Maggie Shipstead’s wonderful novel, Astonish Me. Shortly after that, I picked up The Cranes Dance by Meg Howrey, and was similarly pulled in. In that book, the author mentions drop-in ballet classes for adults. I was curious; I was also writing my own book, Unscripted, one of whose characters is a former ballerina, and I wanted to get into her head. So, despite having neither the body…

The complications of atherosclerosis — heart attack and stroke — are the leading causes of death in Europe and the United States. In recent years, it has been shown that chronic inflammation in the arteries leads to the formation and progression…

You know what’s the least important part of taking a great photo? Gear. The vision you have and the work you put into realizing it are far more critical.That’s not to say gear doesn’t matter, just that it’s best used in service of something larger, not obsessed over. That’s why this guide doesn’t get too deep into the weeds of megapixel counts, sensor sizes, and pixel peeping. All these cameras are capable of producing amazing images; which one is right for you depends more on your needs than the size of the sensor. But choosing the right one can be confusing.…

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a story about time travel must be in want of timeline cleaner-uppers. Okay, maybe it’s not a universal truth. But, I think it should be. I mean, think about it. Every other method of travel has a governing body of some kind to make sure people get where they’re going as safely as they can. There are so many rules for driving, they have whole books full of them! Pilots train and train, laws are enacted, and vessels have regulations before sailing on the high seas. Are these systems perfect? Of course not.…

Researchers have developers a flexible implant capable of relieving pain in patients. In what could be termed as a game-changing discovery, the implant is a water-soluble and biocompatible device that can serve as an alternative to painkillers — eliminating the need for addictive medications. By wrapping around the nerves to provide cooling in the region, the implant can numb the nerve and block pain signals to the brain, bringing relief from pain. Users can activate the implant via an external pump, while controlling the intensity of the cooling effect.“As engineers, we are motivated by the idea of treating pain without drugs…

A novel peptide developed at the Universities of Bayreuth and Bristol is eminently suited for the targeted transport of molecules, for example of active substances and dyes, into the cells of mammals. The peptide is characterized by a dual function: It can enter the cell from the outside and interact there with a partner peptide. The partner peptide has to be previously placed inside the cell exactly where the transported molecules are to take effect. The transport system presented in the journal Nature Chemical Biology exemplifies the promising potential of a de novo design of peptides and proteins. In recent…
