A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.

New device could be used to observe structures as small as individual proteins, as well as the environment in which they move ...

Now that the genome of humans and many other organisms have been sequenced, biologists are turning their attention to discovering how the many thousands of structural and control genes -- the "worker ...

The rapid evolution of microscopy techniques has transformed our ability to visualise biological structures and processes at unprecedented resolutions. Advances in live‐cell imaging, super‐resolution ...

The microscopic world of cells and bacteria is incredibly important to understand, but tricky to study in detail, especially without harming the subjects. Researchers at EPFL have now developed a new ...

Living cells stay healthy and whole through a host of chemical reactions. Yet to date, scientists have been unable to visualize those reactions in such small volumes. Now, researchers have developed a ...

The Advanced Light Microscopy and Innovation Lab (ALMIL) supports MSK researchers by advancing the use of cutting-edge imaging techniques to study complex biological systems. As a specialized hub, ...

Cells contain various specialized structures - such as the nucleus, mitochondria or peroxisomes - known as "organelles''. Tracing their genesis and determining their structure is fundamental to ...

Manufacturers make toothbrushes with these different features to meet varying consumer health needs. One factor influencing the bristle tip shape is the periodontal pocket, a small gap between the ...

The Center for Advanced Microscopy and Imaging (CAMI) is an all-university research, teaching, and service facility located in Upham Hall on Miami University's main campus, in Oxford, Ohio. CAMI ...
