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

Researchers have combined two microscopic imaging techniques in one microscope, providing scientists with a high-resolution method of tracking single molecules in a cellular context. The development ...

Electrical engineers at the University of California San Diego developed a technology that improves the resolution of an ordinary light microscope so that it can be used to directly observe finer ...

Combining the broad compatibility of an inverted microscope with high-speed, high-resolution volumetric imaging, DALISPIM enables direct examination of tissues in standard carriers like well plates, ...

Microscopes are of three basic types: optical, electron (or ion), and scanning probe. The modern optical or light microscope was developed in the mid-19th century. Optical microscopes use transparent ...

It’s not every day that something from the 17 th century gets radically reinvented. But this month, a team from the Broad Institute at MIT and Harvard took aim at one of the most iconic pieces of lab ...

Optical microscopy is a technique employed to closely view a sample through the magnification of a lens with visible light. This is the traditional form of microscopy, which was first invented before ...

Art curators and conservators now can quickly get far more detailed information than ever before by using an integrated combination of light and electron microscopy. OBERKOCHEN/Germany, ...
