Researchers watch tiny living machines self-assemble

Posted: 10 Jun 2012 12:13 PM PDT

Enabling bioengineers to design new molecular machines for nanotechnology applications is one of the possible outcomes of a new study. Scientists have developed a new approach to visualize how proteins assemble, which may also significantly aid our understanding of diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, which are caused by errors in assembly.

Mapping volcanic heat on Jupiter's moon Io
