Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of blindness. It has long been regarded as
vascular disease, but work in the past years has shown abnormalities also in the neural …

Genome-editing technologies have ushered in a new era in gene therapy, providing novel
therapeutic strategies for a wide range of diseases, including both genetic and nongenetic …

Background Noninvasive assessment of metabolic processes that sustain regeneration of
human retinal visual pigments (visual cycle) is essential to improve ophthalmic diagnostics …

In daylight, demand for visual chromophore (11-cis-retinal) exceeds supply by the classical
visual cycle. This shortfall is compensated, in part, by the retinal G-protein-coupled receptor …

The eye is an ideal organ for imaging by a multi-photon excitation approach, because ocular
tissues such as the sclera, cornea, lens and neurosensory retina, are highly transparent to …

All-optical methods for imaging and manipulating brain networks with high spatial resolution
are fundamental to study how neuronal ensembles drive behavior. Stimulation of neuronal …

This work presents the investigations of the impact of an increasing electron correlation in
the hierarchy of coupled-cluster methods, ie, CC2, CCSD, and CC3, on two-photon …

Photoreceptors are the key functional cell types responsible for the initiation of vision in the
retina. Phototransduction involves isomerization and conversion of vitamin A compounds …

Droplet–droplet interactions is ubiquitous in various applications ranging from medical
diagnostics to enhancing and optimizing liquid jet propulsion. We employ an experimental …

We investigated secondary cavitation bubble dynamics during laser-induced bubble
formation in a small container with a partially confined free surface and elastic thin walls. We …
