In biology classes from high school through university, I learned that mitochondria are little objects that reside within ...

My search for answers to these stupendously ambitious questions led me, it now seems inexorably, to mitochondria. This idea of mitochondria being little batteries with a built-in charger, about as ...

A research team from National Taiwan University has developed a new electron microscopy technique that enables sensitive ...

Most people have encountered the black, gray, or pink stains of bacterial biofilms built up on the bathroom tiles or kitchen ...

Transmission electron microscopy is a general type of electron microscopy that generates an image of the internal structure of a thin sample using a beam of electrons to achieve much higher ...

Biofilm disassembly and dispersal play a key role in disease spread, but studying these processes with microscopy and related imaging techniques has been impossible. Until now. “No one had been able ...

The Shaw Prizes have been awarded annually since 2004 to recognize laureates in three areas: astronomy, mathematical sciences ...

The researchers claim LICONN is the first technology beyond electron microscopy (EM) that is capable of reconstructing brain tissue with all the synaptic connections between neurons. It also opens ...
