Abstract We used atomic force microscopy (AFM) to image biological filaments deposited on mica substrates. After cutting of an actin fibre with the tip of the AFM, the filament started to grow in length. The growth occured in air under ambient conditions and proceeded over several days with a constant rate.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
