The interaction between molecular electronic transitions and electromagnetic fields can be
enlarged to the point where distinct hybrid light–matter states, polaritons, emerge. The …

Optical tweezers have become the method of choice in single-molecule manipulation
studies. In this Primer, we first review the physical principles of optical tweezers and the …

The nonradiative conversion of light energy into heat (photothermal therapy, PTT) or sound
energy (photoacoustic imaging, PAI) has been intensively investigated for the treatment and …

INTRODUCTION A mechanistic understanding of brain function requires the identification of
distinct cell types in the brain at a molecular, spatial, and functional level. The preoptic …

INTRODUCTION Chromatin adopts an intricate three-dimensional (3D) organization in the
nucleus that is critical for many genome processes, from gene regulation to genome …

The design and development of tumor microenvironment (TME)-responsive intelligent
nanoplatforms have attracted increasing interest to enhance the therapeutic effects of drugs …

Molecular communication in biology is mediated by protein interactions. According to the
current paradigm, the specificity and affinity required for these interactions are encoded in …

Super-resolution techniques have begun to transform biological and biomedical research by
allowing researchers to observe structures well below the classic diffraction limit of light …

After three decades of developments, single particle tracking (SPT) has become a powerful
tool to interrogate dynamics in a range of materials including live cells and novel catalytic …

Super-resolution fluorescence microscopy is a powerful tool for biological research, but
obtaining multiplexed images for a large number of distinct target species remains …
