In a cramped, windowless room on the University of California, Berkeley campus, two bespoke microscopes — each a Swiss Army knife for high-resolution imaging — operate around the clock gathering data ...

Researchers from Switzerland and Japan have now investigated this virus in minute detail. Using a microscopy technique that they developed themselves, the scientists can zoom in on the surface of ...

Advanced light microscopy techniques are giving scientists a new understanding of human biology and what goes wrong in diseases Katarina Zimmer, Knowable Magazine Key takeaways: Super-resolution ...

Structured illumination microscopy (SIM) is the most preferable system for live-cell super-resolution imaging. It enables the observation of intricate subcellular dynamics. However, conventional SIM ...

Microscopy is an imaging technique that enables us to see a world that would otherwise be invisible to us. Once upon a time, visualizing cells, microbes and other entities not perceptible to the naked ...

A new study provides unprecedented insights into the cellular architecture of over 200 species of plankton using ultrastructure expansion microscopy. Dudin had been working with this particular group ...

As a researcher interested in the architecture and organization of neurons within mammalian brains, Christophe Leterrier, a neuroscientist at the French National Centre for Scientific Research-Aix ...

Using a tiny, spherical glass lens sandwiched between two brass plates, the seventeenth century Dutch microscopist Antonie van Leeuwenhoek was the first to officially describe red blood cells and ...
