Method for 3D Nonlinear Structured Illumination Super-resolution Imaging
Researchers at the University of Arizona have developed a super-resolution microscopy method that is faster, easier to use, and has less artifacts than current super-resolution methods. The result is a 3D dual-color stimulated emission depletion (STED) nonlinear structured illumination (NL-SIM) microscope. Using a combination of low coherent light and...

Allosteric NAMPT Activators for Metabolic and Neurological Disorders
This invention relates to a novel method of increasing the catalytic activity of the enzyme, nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT), which in turn increases the production of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) that is converted to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD). This process to increase supply of NAD in the body is accomplished using...
