A new super-resolution microscope could reveal how IBD damages the gut barrier, helping identify targets for more precise treatments.

By observing matter at the atomic scale, the Hefei Advanced Light Facility could drive breakthroughs in microchips China has produced an electron beam using a cutting-edge electron gun, taking a step ...

Scientists have achieved one-nanometer optical resolution in a microscope that can visualize how light interacts with individual atoms and molecules. The technique, called ultralow tip oscillation ...

Everyone who ever took a photo knows the problem: if you want a detailed image, you need a lot of light. In microscopy, however, too much light is often harmful to the sample—for example, when imaging ...

Deep in the mountains of Central Europe, a small, evergreen clubmoss known as Huperzia selago has become the unlikely star of a study that could change how biologists assess fertility in some of the ...

Light Microscopy Core Facility: The instruments in this facility allow for all means of biological and material light-based imaging. Current equipment includes a Nikon A1R Resonant Scanning 6-color ...

For centuries, scientists have used microscopes to magnify and peer into a world invisible to the naked eye. The earliest instruments were simple lens-filled tubes, the best of which revealed the ...

In biology, seeing can lead to understanding, and researchers in Professor Edward Boyden's lab at the McGovern Institute for Brain Research are committed to bringing life into sharper focus. With a ...

Electron microscopy is a powerful technique that provides high-resolution images by focusing a beam of electrons to reveal fine structural details in biological and material specimens. 2 Because ...
