Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.
Fundamentally, a microscope comprises two subsystems: an illumination system to illuminate the sample and an imaging system that produces a magnified image of the light that has interacted with the ...
Scientists have developed a light microscope so powerful that it allows researchers to discern the precise intracellular location of nearly each individual protein they are studying. The new technique ...
A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.
Light microscopy does much what the name implies: visible light and magnifying lenses are used to view small objects. Light microscopes are the oldest form of higher quality imaging devices, dating ...
