New non-invasive sensors that measure muscle forces have been developed by University of Queensland researchers, unlocking new possibilities for wearable robotic mobility devices.
Researchers developed PinkyCaMP, an mScarlet-based red calcium indicator that combines high brightness and photostability with no detectable blue-light-induced photoswitching. Experiments in cultured cells, brain tissue, and living mice showed that PinkyCaMP supports optogenetic and dual-color imaging, although its slow kinetics may limit precise tracking of rapid neuronal firing.
