Grab your lab coat, or at least pretend you have one, and prepare to zoom way, way in because we’re about to explore a world that’s been hiding right under your nose this whole time. Ever wondered ...

Science is supposed to help us see the world more clearly but sometimes, it just reveals how strange it really is. A grain of ...

A microscope built in the UK is the first in the world to produce 3-D internal pictures of objects. This microscope combines two techniques, X-ray microtomography -- which produces 3-D images from a ...

[Birdbrain] is trying to make their own microfluidic devices. To aid in this quest, they need a quality microscope to see what they’re doing. Instead of buying one outright, they purchased a cheap ...

Nikon just announced the winners of the 2024 Nikon Small World Photomicrography Competition, where scientific microscope images become art. This year’s top prize went to Bruno Cisterna, who (assisted ...

Great things come in small packages and now scientists have an easier way to see what they look like thanks to a new microscope that creates high-resolution, 3-D images of structures measured in ...

Researchers have developed a deep learning algorithm for removing systematic effects from atomic force microscopy images, enabling more precise profiles of material surfaces. Atomic force microscopy, ...

There's a limit to what you can learn about cells from 2D pictures, but creating 3D images is a time-intensive process. Now, scientists from UT Southwestern have developed a new "simple and ...

Current genetic sequencing techniques can provide much information about the genetic makeup and activity in a sample, like a piece of tissue or a drop of blood. But they are unable to reveal where ...

After years of development, researchers have managed to shrink two-photon microscopy into a device that can be mounted on rodents’ heads without impeding behaviour. As Weijian Zong stared at a ...
