Proposal to use superparamagnetic nanoparticles to test the role of cryptochrome in magnetoreception

Evidence is accumulating to support the hypothesis that some animals use light‐induced radical pairs to detect the direction of the Earth’s magnetic field. Cryptochrome proteins seem to be involved in the sensory pathway but it is not yet clear if they are the magnetic sensors: they could, instead,...
