Müller glia provide essential tensile strength to the developing retina
Journal of Cell Biology, 2015 When the formation of Müller glia is inhibited in the zebrafish retina, a major consequence is that the retina begins to rip apart due to a loss of the mechanical resilience that these glial cells provide to the neural tissue.

Harnessing Photo‐Energy Conversion in Nanomaterials for Precision Theranostics
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Harnessing photo‐energy conversion in nanomaterials enables precision theranostics through light‐driven mechanisms such as photoluminescence, photothermal, photoelectric, photoacoustic, photo‐triggered surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and photodynamic processes. This review explores six fundamental principles of photo‐energy conversion, recent

A spatial contrast retina with on-chip calibration for neuromorphic spike-based AER vision systems [PDF]
, 2007 We present a 32 32 pixels contrast retina microchip that provides its output as an address event representation (AER) stream. Spatial contrast is computed as the ratio between pixel photocurrent and a local average between neighboring pixels obtained ...

Neuromorphic Light‐Responsive Organic Matter for in Materia Reservoir Computing
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.In this work we show that light‐responsive adaptive organic matter can store and process information at the matter level, and emulate neuromorphic functionalities such as short term memory, long term memory and visual memory. Besides demonstrating that material dynamics can be exploited for spatio‐temporal event detection and motion perception, we show

Biophysical modelling of a drosophila photoreceptor [PDF]
, 2009 It remains unclear how visual information is co-processed by different layers of neurons in the retina. In particular, relatively little is known how retina translates vast environmental light changes into neural responses of limited range.
