Photoacoustic Nanosensor Probes for Imaging Neurotransmitter Dynamics

The ability to monitor spatiotemporal dynamics of neurotransmitter release is crucial for understanding the basis of brain function. The precise cognitive operations supported by the changes in cortical neuromodulatory activity have not been fully recognized, largely due to the limitations of current methods which have trade-offs between spatial, temporal,...

Chemical Sensing with Fibrous Materials

INV-14037 Background Conventionally, various types of sensor elements have been used for detection of physiological analytes. Some of the most common ones are nanosensors and microworms. In vivo use of nanosensors has been limited by cellular uptake and diffusion into biological systems. Microworm sensors can overcome such limitations of nanosensors;...
