Seeing atoms with an atomic force microscope [PDF]
In this activity, students will make a working model of an atomic force microscope (AFM). A permanent magnet attached to a compact disc (CD) strip acts as the sensor. The sensor is attached to a base made from Legos. Laser light is reflected from the CD sensor and onto a sheet of photosensitive paper. An array of permanent magnets attached to cardboard

Methoxsalen-induced macular toxicity
Psoralen compounds such as methoxsalen are photosensitizer agents used in conjunction with ultraviolet A (UVA) radiation exposure as photochemotherapy (Psoralens and ultraviolet-A therapy [PUVA therapy]) for certain epidermal skin disorders such as ...

Reversible photo-switching in a cell-sized vesicle [PDF]
A photosensitive amphiphilic molecule can switch the shape of an assembled vesicle as determined by microscopic observation. Photo-isomerization induces a change in membrane fluctuation behavior or a morphological transition between ellipsoid and bud shapes, depending on the asymmetrical degree of the initial shape.

Strong Memory in Time Series of Human Magnetoencephalograms Can Identify Photosensitive Epilepsy [PDF]
To discuss the salient role of the statistical memory effects in the human brain functioning we have analyzed a set of stochastic memory quantifiers that reflects the dynamical characteristics of neuromagnetic brain responses to a flickering stimulus of different color combinations from a group of control subjects which is contrasted with those from a ...
