Image: Techniques known as dimensionality reduction can help find patterns in the recorded activity of thousands of neurons. Instead of look at all responses at once, these methods find a smaller set of dimensions, in this case, three, that capture as much structure in the data as possible. Each trace in these graphics represents the activity of the whole brain during a single presentation of a moving stimulus, and different versions of the analysis capture structure related either to the passage of time (left) or the direction of the motion (right). The raw data are the same in both cases, but the analyses found different patterns (Photo courtesy of Jeremy Freeman, Nikita Vladimirov, Takashi Kawashima, Yu Mu, Nicholas).

Image: A new method makes it possible to establish very rapidly what substances—proteins and others—a product in powder form contains. For example, a quick analysis of a washing powder developed for the Danish market revealed a high level of zeolite material, which is used to bind limestone from the hard water that is so prevalent in Denmark, while a sample from Morocco contained none of this material. Analysis of another washing powder revealed that “active oxygen is simply the compound sodium percarbonate, i.e., bonded hydrogen peroxide (Photo courtesy of Iben Julie Schmidt).

Defective Autophagy Triggers Type II Diabetes in Mouse Model

A defect in the cellular cleansing process known as autophagy in individuals with type II diabetes causes the build-up of toxic beta-cell amyloid polypeptide, a scenario similar to the build-up of beta amyloid peptides in Alzheimer's disease.  More...
