Image: Associate Professor Menglin Chen studies how the light-sensitive nanoparticles affect living cells. The screen shows calcium being released inside a cell after nanoparticles taken up by the cell are exposed to blue light. Calcium plays an important role in cellular signaling, and the experiment helps the researchers understand how the nanoparticles can translate light into biological activity.

Image: Researchers developed a handheld photothermal mid-infrared spectroscopic imaging (MIRSI) system that measures just 8 square inches. Probe light from a visible (red) diode laser and pump light from a modulated quantum cascade laser (QCL) are coupled into optical fibers and delivered to a flexible, handheld imager (blue dashed box). The beams are combined at a short-pass dichroic mirror and focused onto the sample using an off-axis parabolic mirror (OAP). (Image Credit:Rohith Reddy, University of Houston)

Image: The thin foetoscope is guided through the abdominal wall to the placenta. Small magnets in its tip react to an externally generated magnetic field, enabling the instrument to be bent with precision. The robotic platform is designed to occlude shared blood vessels in the placenta of twins with twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome. (Image Credit: created with BioRender.com, ETH Zurich)
