![neuron](assets/img/splash/releases/neuron1.jpg)
Berkeley Lab scientists have helped design a compound that suppresses symptoms of Huntington's Disease in mice. The researchers believe the compound is a promising therapeutic deserving of further investigation in the fight against this devastating neurodegenerative disease. »
Folding Funnels Key to Biomimicry
![Biomimicry](assets/img/splash/releases/DeYorero-AFM-image.jpg)
In a boost for biomimicry and self-assembling molecular systems, Berkeley Lab researchers have shown that a concept widely accepted as describing the folding of a single individual protein is also applicable to the self-assembly of multiple proteins. »

Advanced Light Source Stars in New Video from California Academy of Sciences
Videographers from the California Academy of Sciences came to the ALS to film scientists talking about their work and about how the ALS provides exciting opportunities for research in everything from bone strength to faster computer chips. The video, shown on screens throughout the Academy, is part of the Academy's Science in Action effort "to make science accessible for everyone and discuss its relevance in our everyday lives.
