A protein version of a Vermeer masterwork
Canadian scientists have recreated the famous painting, ‘Girl with a Pearl Earring’ - a masterwork of Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer, on the microscale by using a new protein patterning technique. In fact, they’ve used a new laser method to draw protein pictures. But the real goal of this work is to replicate the brain’s complex cellular environment. The research team said their new laser method is ‘a major discovery, since the new laser technology can encourage and guide the growth of finicky nerve cells.’
