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

Don’t judge a book by its cover, even if it’s wrapped in Red Bull. A TikTok account run by @micromagic6 examines foods under a microscope, such as raw meats, fruits and popular beverages. The account ...

You could probably find a few biologists who are diehard protein partisans, and others who love lipids, but if a genie granted them one wish for what they could see inside living cells, most would ...

Visualizing subcellular structures deep inside the brains of living animals could improve our understanding of how neurons function in their native environment. Thanks to an improved super-resolution ...

To better understand problems in the brain’s blood vessels that may lead to stroke, we need a better way to see them. Cardiovascular imaging can peer inside coronary arteries to spot clots blocking ...

Mice are the mainstay of modern biomedical research, but the ability to image their brain cells while they're scampering around is no easy task. Scientists at Stanford University have created a ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The electron microscope has been humanity’s most important magnifying glass, since the first electron lens was invented in 1926 by Hans Busch. Just five years later, the first ...

Scientists from Zelinsky Institute of Organic Chemistry of Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow managed to look inside an organic chemical reaction with electron microscope and recorded the occurred ...

Institutions hoping to take their science programs online often run into the same roadblock: how to translate a discipline built around tactile lab experiences to a digital environment. Oregon State ...

Mini microscopes embedded into the brains of genetically engineered mice are providing researchers a window onto the inner workings of the mammalian mind. The tool provides an unprecedentedly wide ...
