You may have heard about people making paintings on a grain of rice, but is it possible to create something inside a living cell, which is thousands of times smaller? Well, for the first time, a team ...

This hybrid system lets researchers zoom in on living human cells with incredible detail. This offers a new real time insight into how the flu virus operates. For the first time, researchers could ...

Researchers at the University of Nottingham have created an endoscopic device that can 3D image the stiffness of individual biological cells and complex organisms, a discovery that could help doctors ...

The polarized diSPIM microscope, which can image full 3D orientation and position of molecules in cells. The instrument was constructed in the Hari Shroff lab at the National Institute of Biomedical ...

A microscopic image shows small red centers connected by networks of branched and straight filaments. The team mixed purified actin monomers with precise concentrations of two nucleation-promoting ...

The image shows an α-synuclein oligomer (blue) partially inserted into a cell membrane (left). Over time, it forms a pore (right) that allows molecules to pass through for a short period. The oligomer ...
