Editorial
Getting the signal (from Raman) To capitalize on the specificity of Raman spectra in biomedicine and the life sciences, some researchers have turned to surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) to clearly ascertain the vibrational signal of molecules. The SERS technique is based on the principle that the vibrational spectra of molecules are magnified when in the vicinity of a structured metal nanomaterial, and thus they become...

A new perspective on ‘watching that diet’ Let’s face it: It is hard in this modern world to keep off the pounds. With the surge of desk jockeying, constant reliance on automotive transport, and a myriad of entertainment options that allow the body to stagnate in a stationary position, a person must actively go out of his or her way to make sure more calories are burned than are being consumed. But an inventive group of researchers...
