Optimized DNA sequences allow for 10-times faster image acquisition in DNA-PAINT. Recent advances in fluorescence microscopy allow researchers to study biological processes below the classical ...

A group of international scientists have recovered the oldest known DNA and used it to reveal what life was like 2 million years ago in northern Greenland. In research published Wednesday in the ...

Recent advancements in single-molecule-based superresolution microscopy have made it possible to visualize biological structures with unprecedented spatial resolution. Determining the spatial ...

Scientists have analyzed what they say is the oldest DNA recovered to date, allowing them to reconstruct what life was like two million years ago in northern Greenland. The findings suggest a rich ...

An international team of researchers including the University of Adelaide, has completed the first large-scale study of DNA belonging to ancient humans of the central Andes in South America and found ...

Mechanical forces play a vital role in biology. Despite their importance, a barrier in their understanding has been made by the challenge to image cellular force with sub-100-nm resolution. Now, ...

Fluorescence microscopy is commonly used in the study of biological systems mostly because of its specificity, ability to target structures individually, and its high signal over background. Recently, ...

Artist Kate Thompson worked samples of synthetic DNA into the ink and acrylic coating for her portrait of DNA pioneer Rosalind Franklin. (University of Washington Photo / Dennis Wise) Art imitates ...

“It really shows up that these imaginary racial categories that we have are really very modern constructions, or very recent constructions, that really are not applicable to the past at all,” Natural ...

Recent advances in fluorescence microscopy allow researchers to study biological processes below the classical diffraction limit of light. Researchers have now developed DNA-PAINT, a variant of these ...
