Research highlight: Chemical tool illuminates pathways used by dopamine, opioids and other neuronal signals
LSI researchers have developed a chemical tool to detect how signaling molecules travel within the brain to reach and interact with GPCRs. The tool can detect molecules across brain regions without sacrificing spatial resolution.
New tool improves scientists’ ability to manipulate cellular activities
A collaboration between two LSI labs has resulted in a new research tool for manipulating when and where cellular functions are activated, using the power of peptides.
