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 ...

Ordinary microscopes can see 8 times more minutely than known physical limits if miniature glass spheres are sprinkled onto samples, according to a new study. The cheapest and most common microscopes ...

As A 'Book Scientist' I Work With Microscopes, Imaging Technologies And AI To Preserve Ancient Texts. Cultural heritage is ...

Collaboration between deep learning experts and microscopy experts leads to an significantly improved data-intensive light-field microscopy method by using AI and ground-truthing it with light-sheet ...

For those of you who haven’t visited the websites of Carl Zeiss or Nikon lately, fluorescent microscopes are expensive. Typically, microscopes of the sort required by pathologists to make diagnosis ...

There are now various attachments that allow you to capture microscope-scale images with your smartphone. Unfortunately, however, the limitations of the phone's lens and image sensor mean that those ...

We can directly see the hidden world of atoms thanks to electron microscopes, first developed in the 1930s. Today, electron microscopes, which use beams of electrons to illuminate and magnify a sample ...

Confocal laser scanning microscopes (CLSMs) use a laser to generate a digital image of a given sample. Confocal microscopes work in tandem with ‘fluorescent tagging’, which involves the alteration of ...

Electron microscopes have been helping us see what the things around us are made of for decades. These microscopes use a beam of electrons to illuminate extremely small structures, but they can't ...

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 ...

Biophysicists have developed control software that optimizes how fluorescence microscopes collect data on living samples. Their control loop, used to image mitochondrial and bacterial sites of ...

A new microscope can be printed on a flat piece of paper and assembled with a few extra components in less than 10 minutes. All the parts to make it cost less than a dollar, according to Stanford ...
