Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

Most of the time, you assume your brain is either “on” or “off,” awake or asleep. A new study shows something far more ...

Discover why the witec360 Raman microscope is considered the gold standard for correlative microscopy and nanoscale imaging.

New device could be used to observe structures as small as individual proteins, as well as the environment in which they move ...

A study of the hearts of Greenland sharks has found that the long-lived deep-sea predator has massive accumulations of ageing ...

According to the researchers, the shape-shifting ‘active particles’ could potentially function as microrobots for targeted ...

A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.

This is an important study on the sensory roles of Cerebrospinal fluid-contacting neurons (CBF-cn) in mammals. The authors identify PKD2L1 as the predominant pH-sensing channel CBF-cn and show how the ...

This valuable study identifies a novel regulator of stress-induced gene quiescence in C. elegans: the multi-Zinc-finger protein ZNF-236. The work provides evidence for an active mechanism that ...
