Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) monitors brain hemodynamics by sending NIR light into the head from light sources placed on the scalp and measuring the light that scatters back. While this approach is noninvasive, its accuracy can be affected by signal contamination from blood flow in the scalp and skull. Isolating the cerebral hemodynamic response , so that signals from the brain do not mix with signals from superficial layers surrounding it, is necessary to ensure accurate measurements. Using a special source-detector geometry, researchers at Tufts University measured how light travels through a layered-tissue model of the head. This approach allowed the researchers to isolate brain-specific signals without the need for large datasets for tomographic reconstructions. Traditional fNIRS measurements often use a single distance between a light source and a detector. While easy to implement, this homogeneous setup is highly sensitive to blood flow changes in the scalp an...

The combination of optical fiber and phototheranostic agents has emerged as a promising strategy to address the challenges of limited light penetration depth and systemic toxicity of nanomaterials . However, the multiplexing potential of fiber-optic probes remains underrated, resulting in enlarged incisions, repeated invasive procedures, and a lack of real-time therapeutic feedback. Herein, we propose a scheme for single‑fiber multifunctional integration leveraging wavelength division multiplexing technology. As a proof-of-concept, by co-immobilizing pH indicator, temperature indicator, and photothermal agent with non-overlapped excitation bands onto tapered optical fiber surface, a fiber-optic theranostic probe enabling closed-loop tumor photothermal therapy was developed. Pre-treatment, the probe can achieve tumor edge identification through revealing the tumor pH gradient. Intra-treatment, the photothermal agent can convert optical energy into heat for photothermal therapy , while...

Research in   New Phytologist   shows that plants can acquire nutrients not only from the soil but also from atmospheric dust that settles and dissolves on their leaves, releasing elements such as phosphorus and iron. In a Mediterranean field study simulating dust events, dust application increased plant macronutrient and micronutrient concentrations through the plants' mildly acidic leaves. By integrating field observations with dust-deposition estimates and soil nutrient data from different regions, investigators found that during dust events, daily nutrient inputs via foliar uptake can match or exceed soil-derived inputs. "This suggests a shift from the traditionally soil-centric view of nutrient acquisition toward a vegetation-mediated pathway, where the plant canopy acts as an active interface for capturing and processing atmospheric particles," said Anton Lokshin, a postdoctoral researcher at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel.  "In nutrient-limited eco...
