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

Adult stem cells have captured researchers’ interest since their discovery in the 1960s. Due to their unique capacity to self-renew and differentiate into multiple cell types, scientists find them ...

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 ...

A new dual-light microscope lets researchers observe micro- and nanoscale activity inside living cells without using dyes. The system captures both detailed structures and tiny moving particles at ...

Using a tiny, spherical glass lens sandwiched between two brass plates, the 17th-century Dutch microscopist Antonie van Leeuwenhoek was the first to officially describe red blood cells and sperm cells ...

New device could be used to observe structures as small as individual proteins, as well as the environment in which they move ...

The polarized diSPIM microscope, which can image full 3D orientation and position of molecules in cells. The instrument was constructed in the Hari Shroff lab at the National Institute of Biomedical ...
