Optical microscopy techniques have become essential tools for studying normal and pathological biological systems. However, in many situations, image quality deteriorates rapidly in the field of view due to optical aberrations and scattering induced by thick tissues. To compensate for these aberrations and restore the microscope's image quality, adaptive optics (AO) techniques have been proposed for the past 15 years.

Article Synopsis
  • * Scientists studied the DNA found in nematodes’ mitochondria (which is like their energy factory) to learn about how they have changed and adapted to different environments and diets, especially since some are parasites.
  • * The study found that while nematodes have some common traits, there are also big differences between them, and these differences can help us understand how they evolve and survive in changing conditions.

Tight relationships exist in the local Universe between the central stellar properties of galaxies and the mass of their supermassive black hole (SMBH). These suggest that galaxies and black holes co-evolve, with the main regulation mechanism being energetic feedback from accretion onto the black hole during its quasar phase. A crucial question is how the relationship between black holes and galaxies evolves with time; a key epoch to examine this relationship is at the peaks of star formation and black hole growth 8-12 billion years ago (redshifts 1-3).

Objectives: Evidence-based interventions for dementia caregivers, such as the Savvy Caregiver Program (SC), seek to address skills and knowledge deficits, caregiver burden, depressive symptoms, and grief. Little research has examined mechanisms by which these interventions accomplish their goals. Caregiver preparedness may be a possible mechanism by which caregiver interventions may confer benefits.
