Felix Bloch meets Alois Alzheimer: On p. 3476 R. Neier and H. P. Herzig et al. employ an optical label‐free refractometric sensing platform, based on Bloch surface waves, to monitor in real time the early events of the amyloid‐beta 1–42 peptide aggregation, which is related to the onset of the aberrant neurodegenerative Alzheimer's disease.
