According to them, the high-resolution fluorescence microscope can reveal even the tiniest of cell processes, and it promises to offer much richer information. The researchers stated that several ...

Researchers have created a microscope capable of observing cells in 3-D. With this new technology scientists can watch videos of cells and their natural environments without needing to extract them.

Scientists at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute's Janelia Research Campus have developed a microscope which combines two imaging techniques to capture live 3-D images of cells. The research was ...

“Current approaches to tissue imaging often rely on staining or labelling cells in order to render them visible under the microscope,” says La Trobe University's Professor Abbey, who led the ...

Many structures in cells are so small that standard microscopes can only produce fragmented images. Their resolution only begins at around 200 nanometers. However, human cells, for instance ...
