Micrograph of human cells modified to act as metal sensors. Researchers at JILA built hardware to help time the dynamic states of these sensors, which change fluorescence color when they... Individual cells modified to act as sensors using fluorescence are already useful tools in biochemistry, but now they can add good timing to their resume, ... (more)
