Biological signalling is regulated through a complex and tightly choreographed interplay
between cells and their extracellular matrix. The spatiotemporal control of these interactions …

The nervous system maintains homeostasis and health. Homeostatic disruptions underlying
the pathobiology of many diseases can be controlled by bioelectronic devices targeting CNS …

Biological processes are naturally regulated with high spatial and temporal control, as is
perhaps most evident in metazoan embryogenesis. Chemical tools have been extensively …

Sensory photoreceptors underpin light-dependent adaptations of organismal physiology,
development, and behavior in nature. Adapted for optogenetics, sensory photoreceptors …

In recent years, microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) have caused ubiquitous
environmental pollution and raised widespread concern about their potential toxicity to …

Red light penetrates deep into mammalian tissues and has low phototoxicity, but few
optogenetic tools that use red light have been developed. Here we present MagRed, a red …

Photon upconversion (UC) from near‐infrared (NIR) light to visible light has enabled
optogenetic manipulations in deep tissues. However, materials for NIR optogenetics have …

CRISPR and CRISPR-associated (Cas) protein, as components of microbial adaptive
immune system, allows biologists to edit genomic DNA in a precise and specific way …

Optogenetics combines genetics and biophotonics to enable noninvasive control of
biological processes with high spatiotemporal precision. When engineered into protein …

Successful establishment of CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing technology in Plasmodium spp.
has provided a powerful tool to transform Plasmodium falciparum into a genetically more …
