Analysis provides new insights into complex effects of Alzheimer’s disease on the retina

Cedars-Sinai investigators have produced the most extensive analysis to date of changes in the retina - a layer of tissue at the back of the eye where visual information originates - and how those retinal changes correspond to brain and cognitive changes in Alzheimer's disease patients.

Quiescent ovarian cancer cells secrete a protein to induce chemotherapy resistance in neighboring cells

Certain chemotherapy-resistant ovarian cancer cells protect neighboring cancer cells by sending signals that induce resistance, according to a new study from University of Pittsburgh and UPMC researchers that may help explain why ovarian cancer patients respond poorly to chemotherapy or relapse after treatment.

New ghost imaging algorithm produces higher-resolution image reconstruction with better contrast

Although electron microscopy can already reveal details as small as one nanometer, ongoing research seeks to break through barriers limiting image quality and reducing the optical dose on the samples. Aberration is a common problem in electron microscopy that can reduce the resolution and quality of the images produced.
