Storms bring ocean nutrients to light

Engineered Fluorescent Proteins Bring Biochemistry To Light

To ensure the continued advancement of cell biology, it is critical that the visualization of biochemical activities in live model animals with high temporal and spatial resolution ceases to be a technical tour de force, and instead becomes a routine and widely accessible endeavor. In the last decade a convergence of interests between physicists, chemists, biologists, and engineers has resulted...

Benthic storms: temporal variability in a deep-ocean nepheloid layer.

Time series measurements of light scattering were made for 2(1/2) months at 20 meters above the bottom in the western North Atlantic. The highest values recorded with the nephelometer exceeded all previous measurements worldwide. Rapid changes indicated a high degree of activity near the sea floor, and some increases may have been related to atmospheric storms.

Neurological Disease Rises from Ocean to Bring Model for Human Epilepsy to Life

Domoic acid of macroalgal origin was used for traditional and medicinal purposes in Japan and largely forgotten until its rediscovery in diatoms that poisoned 107 people after consumption of contaminated mussels. The more severely poisoned victims had seizures and/or amnesia and four died; however, one survivor unexpectedly developed temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) a year after the event. Nearly a...
