From this Article:
The hair bundle is both a mechano-sensory antenna and a force generator that might help the
vertebrate hair cell from the inner ear to amplify its responsiveness to small stimuli. To study active...
(Signal Conditioning)
From this Article:
The scientist's signal processing toolbox for realtime frequency domain characterization
of given systems, in particular ones made by state of the art nanooptical
engineering, is incomplete. Nowadays...

From this Article:
The image quality of a two-photon microscope is often degraded by wavefront aberrations induced by the specimen. We demonstrate here that resolution and signal size in two-photon microcopy can be...

From this Article:
Red blood cells are amazingly deformable structures able to recover their initial shape even after large deformations as when passing through tight blood capillaries. The reason for this exceptional...
(Vibration and Acceleration Sensing)
From this Article:
The vertebrate ear benefits from nonlinear mechanical amplification to operate over a vast range of sound intensities. The amplificatory process is thought to emerge from active force production by...

From this Article:
The injection of positive charge carriers (holes) into a single conjugated polymer chain was observed to be light-assisted. This effect may underlie critical, poorly understood organic electronic...

From this Article:
The study of molecular dynamics at the single-molecule level with fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) and far-field optics has contributed greatly to the functional understanding of complex...

From this Article:
We describe an optical method capable of tracking a single fluorescent molecule with a flexible choice of high spatial accuracy (~10-20 nm standard deviation or ~20-40 nm full-width-at-half-maximum)...

From this Article:
The molecular composition of the hair cell transduction channel has not been identified. Here we explore the novel hypothesis that hair cell transduction channels include HCN subunits. The HCN family...

From this Article:
Advanced light microscopy offers sensitive and non-invasive means to image neural activity and to control signaling with photolysable molecules and, recently, light-gated channels. These approaches...

From this Article:
The form of the malaria parasite inoculated by the mosquito, called the sporozoite, transforms inside the host liver into thousands of a new form of the parasite, called the merozoite, which infects...

From this Article:
High-Speed tracking of several particles allows measuring dynamic long-range interactions relevant to biotechnology and colloidal physics. In this paper we extend the successful technique of 3D...

From this Article:
One century after Mie's original paper, Mie scattering is still a fertile field of scientific endeavor. We show that the Mie scattering distinguishes the topological charge of light beams with phase...

From this Article:
HU is one of the most abundant proteins in bacterial chromosomes and participates in nucleoid compaction and gene regulation. We report experiments using DNA stretching that study the dependence of...

From this Article:
Several lines of evidence indicate that very large G-protein-coupled receptor 1 (Vlgr1) makes up the ankle links that connect the stereocilia of hair cells at their base. Here, we show that the...

From this Article:
We propose two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF) microscopy employing a novel phase modulation technique of ultra-broadband laser pulses, which allows the relative excitation of an individual...
