Fluorescent imaging tracks metabolism of cells in real time
Scientists at Cornell have created a new imaging technique that allows them to observe the metabolic processes of cells in real time. This method could be used to quickly test the effectiveness of new treatments for various diseases. The researchers' findings have been published in Science Advances.
Why it's good news: It could lead to more efficient testing and development of life-saving therapies.
The science section covers breakthroughs in medicine, physics, biology, and technology. We surface discoveries that expand what humanity can do, from new treatments reaching clinical trials to engineering feats that seemed impossible a decade ago. Every link goes to the original publisher so you can read the full study or press release yourself.
