Another Nature paper by 2nd year Chynna Smith! Amazing work!! nature.com/articles/s4225…

“How can we apply this advanced AFM-based method that we develop to understand #disease progression? If it's #cancer , if it's hearing, or if it's inflammation.”

Our latest research highlight features Alexander Cartagena-Rivera, Ph.D., NIBIB
