Scientists have developed a tool for using gene expression to get an image of a cell, called DNA microscopy. The technique requires some simple methods as well as genetic sequencing and an algorithm.

Visualising biology is a proven powerful strategy of scientific discovery, with live microscopy being a particularly successful endeavour. But only the latest revolutionary technologies in advanced ...

Cells rely on a network of tiny filaments to give them form and support their structure. One crucial filament is a protein called actin. Researchers have now devised a new way to monitor the movements ...

An international research team has gained new insights into the dynamics of myelin swellings in the brain. Myelin swellings are considered as the precursor of lesions in the brain of people with ...

Combining image analysis with a three-dimensional microscopy technique allows researchers to quantify new or little-understood cell biology phenomena, according to a new study publishing December 19 ...

NEW YORK & TAIPEI, Taiwan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The New York Structural Biology Center (NYSBC), a global leading institute in structural biology, and Syncell, a life science tools company pioneering the ...

The Microscopy Core Facility supports both research and teaching needs. Resources include a scanning electron microscope (SEM), a transmission electron microscope (TEM), a laser scanning confocal ...

Researchers are carrying the field of microscopy a step further, refining a technique known as cryogenic electron microscopy, or cryo-EM. In the late 1600s, the Dutch tradesman Anthoni van Leeuwenhoek ...

One look through something called a confocal microscope was all it took for William Sunderland to make a drastic change in his career plans. A math student with what appeared to be a bright future in ...
