Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

Understanding how tumors change their metabolism to resist treatments is a growing focus in cancer research. As cancer cells adapt to therapies, their metabolism often shifts, which can help them ...

A fully open-source platform provides a compact rheometer that can be easily combined with optical microscopy, allowing ...

A new microscope just arrived at the International Space Station (ISS) to help study life's adaptability under extreme conditions using an innovative imaging technique. The Extant Life Volumetric ...

Encouraged by these results, Dudin, Dey, Guichard, and Hamel launched a close collaboration. Three years later, their work has produced near-encyclopedic insight into hundreds of protist species and ...

ZURICH, Switzerland - Researchers in Switzerland have created a new kind of microscope that can be used to image samples found in any type of liquid – especially the insides of organs that have been ...

Researchers at TU Graz have proven that espresso is a favourable alternative to the highly toxic and radioactive uranyl acetate in the analysis of biological samples.

Researchers have integrated their megahertz-speed optical coherence tomography (MHz-OCT) system into a commercially available neurosurgical microscope. The top left picture shows the typical surgical ...

After only six months from the inauguration of the Joint Electron Microscopy Center at ALBA (JEMCA), this marvel of technology is already feeding published research. In fact, the first paper including ...
