Computational model of a two-dimensional in silico model of tumor growt. The colors at the tumor edge show contours of glucose and oxygen concentration, while in the interior we see contours of cancer cell concentrations.

Joanna Mirecki Millunchick - An SEM micrograph of InAs grown on a pattern of 2x2 µm mesas created by focused ion beam (FIB) milling an InP substrate. The InP substrate was first FIB patterned and then transferred in vacuo to a molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) system for InAs film growth. Growth on the raised mesas produces a less rough and more uniformly faceted InAs film than growth on unpatterned InP.

ingle Molecule Fluorescence Illuminates Alzheimer's. A montage of TIRF images depicts the photobleaching of hundreds of single oligomers of fluorescently labeled amyloid-β(1-40). In the overlaid confocal image, single amyloid-β(1-40) oligomers (black) decorate the DiO-labeled membranes of two SH-SY5Y cells; such aggregates may disrupt neuronal cell membrane integrity, contributing to the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease.
