Nanoscale tech tracks proteins inside living neurons to guide Alzheimer's and Parkinson's drug discovery
Source: Phys.org · Published

A technology developed at The University of Queensland allowing scientists to observe how disease-related proteins behave inside living neurons will be used to advance early drug discovery for neurodegenerative diseases. The NASTIC (Nanoscale Spatiotemporal Indexing Clustering) platform, spun out into Brisbane-based startup Accretion Bio, enables researchers to study real-time biological…
