| Maxim Winther Radical Eradication: Piercing the Darkness of the Neuronal Network
Division: | Biotechnologie | Catégorie: | Sénior | Région: | Greater Vancouver | Ville: | Vancouver, BC | École: | Kitsilano Secondary | Sommaire: | The purpose of the project was to determine if antioxidants would neutralize free radicals in living tadpole neurons. A novel method was developed to directly measure free radical concentration in vivo. Results will improve the two-photon microscopy process and help to understand disease treatments because free radicals are associated with Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and many forms of cancer. |
