Controlling neurons with light -- but without wires or batteries

In optogenetics, scientists use light to turn groups of neurons in the brain on or off. New research demonstrates a new optogenetics method that eliminates the need for bulky optical fibers, gives researchers more precise control of the light's intensity, and allows for stimulating multiple areas of the brain simultaneously. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/01/190102151215.htm

Is habitat restoration actually killing plants in the California wildlands?

New work shows for the first time just how widespread and deadly the threat of pathogens from restoration nurseries may be to natural forests. The team surveyed five native plant nurseries in Northern California and found that four harbored exotic, or non-native, Phytophthora pathogens. New management techniques, coupled with new methods for detecting pathogens, can help these nurseries limit the spread of exotic pathogens into the wild. from All Top News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/01/190102140733.htm
