"The electron microscope has been used in hair research for half a century, but the knowledge gained through this study has become rather fragmented over the years. While the molecular biological ...

What does the inside of a cell really look like? In the past, standard microscopes were limited in how well they could answer this question. Now, researchers from the Universities of Göttingen and ...

A hybrid microscope allows scientists to simultaneously image the full 3D orientation and position of an ensemble of molecules, such as labeled proteins inside cells. The microscope combines polarized ...

Stanford researchers have combined two microscopy techniques to create a one-of-a-kind instrument that can show cell structures interacting in real time at an unprecedented 120-nanometer ...

Programmable recombinases let one cell produce multiple fates in preset ratios, enabling controlled division of labor, tunable traits, and engineered multicellular systems. (Nanowerk News) Cellular ...

With a so-called cryo plasma-FIB (Plasma Focused Ion Beam) scanning electron microscope with nanomanipulator, Goethe University in Frankfurt (Germany) is expanding its research infrastructure with a ...

“We were stuck in the mindset that glucose is an energy source and nothing else,” Stanford Medicine chairman of dermatology Dr. Paul Khavari said. His are the words that define the paradigm shift ...
