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 ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Composite of three mages from new microscope technology show a cell's replication machinery in green, already-replicated DNA is ...

A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair. Instead of choosing between seeing big structures or tiny particles, researchers ...

Engineers have devised a way to induce cells to inscribe the history of cellular events in a long protein structure that can be imaged using a light microscope. As cells perform their everyday ...

Researchers from several Parisian institutions have worked together to develop a non-destructive approach to study how ...

Using a "spooky" phenomenon of quantum physics, Caltech researchers have discovered a way to double the resolution of light microscopes. In a paper appearing in the journal Nature Communications, a ...

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 ...
