The structural properties of nanoparticles have attracted significant interest due to their potentialapplications in various fields such as catalysis, drug delivery, and optics [1]. Their nanoscaledimensions and large surface area to volume ratio provide unique characteristics, includinghigher reactivity, selectivity, and mechanical strength compared to bulk materials. [...]

Assembled monolayers of colloidal particles are crucial for various applications, including optoelectronics, surface engineering, as well as light harvesting, and catalysis. A common approach for self-assembly is the drying of a colloidal suspension film on a solid substrate using technologies such as printing and coating. [...]

Self-replicating amyloid beta (Aβ) oligomers are considered as one of the major drivers for disrupted synaptic function and plasticity, leading to impaired neuronal viability and progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Here, we investigated the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of the anti-oligomeric peptide PRI-002, which was developed to disassemble toxic Aβ oligomers into non-toxic monomers. [...]

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by α‐synuclein aggregation in neurons. Recent advances suggest α‐synuclein aggregates could serve as a biomarker for PD and related synucleinopathies [...]

Disrupted in schizophrenia 1 (DISC1) is a pleiotropic scaffold protein that is postulated to comprise large disordered regions and four distinct structured segments with a high proportion of helical or coiled-coil fold. DISC1 associates with over 300 proteins and is associated with several physiological roles ranging from mitosis to cellular differentiation. [...]

Connectivity changes after brain lesions due to stroke are tightly linked to functional outcome. Recent analyses of fMRI time series indicate that dynamic functional network connectivity (dFNC), reflecting transient states of connectivity may capture network-level disruptions distant to the lesion site.
