Two heads are better than one, as the saying goes, and sometimes two instruments, ingeniously recombined, can accomplish feats that neither could have done on its own. For the first time, a hybrid microscope born at the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL), allows scientists to simultaneously image the full 3D orientation and position of an ensemble of molecules, such as labeled proteins inside cells. &nbsp;Source: <a href="https://www.mbl.edu/news/new-microscope-can-image-once-full-3d-orientation-position-molecules-cells">Marine Biological Laboratory at the University of Chicago.</a>

Each year, approximately 18,000 Americans suffer from spinal cord injuries. By detecting intact nerve connections in the injured spinal cord, a newly developed imaging radiotracer has the potential to help diagnose injuries more precisely, monitor recovery, and evaluate the effectiveness of new therapies in clinical trials.

A major challenge in self-powered wearable sensors for health care monitoring is distinguishing different signals when they occur at the same time. With NIBIB funding, researchers from Penn State and China’s Hebei University of Technology addressed this issue by uncovering a new property of a sensor material, which enabled them to develop a new type of flexible sensor that can accurately measure both temperature and physical strain simultaneously but separately to more precisely pinpoint various signals.
