When designing microscopes, optical engineers have long faced a trade-off between speed, field of view and resolution. But ...

Researchers in the lab of Sam Peng, the Pfizer Inc.–Gerald Laubach Career Development Assistant Professor of Chemistry at MIT ...

"Precision medicine" has become increasingly popular in the last decade as an avenue for cancer therapy, where treatment strategies are tailored to a specific patient based on the unique ...

Three-dimensional (3D) imaging is essential for investigating cellular structure and dynamics. Traditional optical methods rely on adhesive or mechanical forces to hold and scan cells, which limit ...

Researchers at the University of Adelaide, as part of an international team, have developed an approach that makes advanced microscopy possible through an optical fiber thinner than a human hair.

Microscopes have long been scientists' eyes into the unseen, revealing everything from bustling cells to viruses and nanoscale structures. However, even the most powerful optical microscopes have been ...

Sub-Ångström stability supports high-resolution AFM imaging of crystalline and two-dimensional materials under ambient ...

Researchers have developed a new microscope that can visualize the optical response of surfaces at an unprecedented spatial resolution of one nanometer. This paves the way for optical microscopy of ...

New U-STORM imaging technology lets scientists view molecular structures in subatomic detail - about 1,000 times clearer than ...

Microscopy is an imaging technique that enables us to see a world that would otherwise be invisible to us. Once upon a time, visualizing cells, microbes and other entities not perceptible to the naked ...
