Mechanism of Glucose Transport by GLUT1
3D illustration of the glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) protein within the cell membrane, showing how GLUT1 undergoes a conformational change upon glucose binding. This change allows glucose to be released into the cell, moving naturally down its concentration gradient.

Chronic traumatic encephalopathy
Infographic depicting the four stages of Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE), a progressive degenerative disease of the brain found in individuals with a history of repetitive traumatic brain injury (TBI). Changes as the disease progresses includes a buildup of tau proteins, brain atrophy, cognitive impairment, and dementia. Also outlined are the prevention and return to play guidelines recommended for individuals that have experienced a traumatic brain injury.
