Neurotransmitters and neuromodulators have a wide range of key roles throughout the
nervous system. However, their dynamics in both health and disease have been challenging …

The genetically encoded fluorescent sensors convert chemical and physical signals into
light. They are powerful tools for the visualisation of physiological processes in living cells …

Integrating synthetic biology into wearables could expand opportunities for noninvasive
monitoring of physiological status, disease states and exposure to pathogens or toxins …

Dopamine (DA) plays multiple roles in a wide range of physiological and pathological
processes via a large network of dopaminergic projections. To dissect the spatiotemporal …

The spike (S) protein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)
binds angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) on host cells to initiate entry, and soluble …

Dopamine (DA) plays a critical role in the brain, and the ability to directly measure
dopaminergic activity is essential for understanding its physiological functions. We therefore …

Lack of access to safe drinking water is a global problem, and methods to reliably and easily
detect contaminants could be transformative. We report the development of a cell-free in …

Cell-free biology is the activation of biological processes without the use of intact living cells.
It has been used for more than 50 years across the life sciences as a foundational research …

Olfactory systems must detect and discriminate amongst an enormous variety of odorants.
To contend with this challenge, diverse species have converged on a common strategy in …

Cell-free gene expression (CFE) emerged as an alternative approach to living cells for
specific applications in protein synthesis and labelling for structural biology and proteomics …
