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

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

Quantitative phase microscopy (QPM) leverages forward-scattered light and can detect structures at the microscale (in this study, over 100 nanometers), but not smaller. Consequently, this technique ...

Encouraged by these results, Dudin, Dey, Guichard, and Hamel launched a close collaboration. Three years later, their work has produced near-encyclopedic insight into hundreds of protist species and ...

Researchers at the University of Tokyo have developed a microscope that captures signals across an intensity range fourteen times wider than conventional systems. The device records both forward and ...

What is Scanning Ion Conductance Microscopy? Scanning Ion Conductance Microscopy (SICM) is a non-contact scanning probe microscopy technique that enables high-resolution imaging of living cells and ...

What does the inside of a cell really look like? In the past, standard microscopes were limited in how well they could answer this question. Now, researchers from the Universities of Göttingen and ...

Researchers developed a large-scale, dynamic imaging technique using mesoscopic oblique plane microscopy, which can capture 3D images of entire organisms and maintain cellular resolution. A new ...

Conceptual illustration of the bidirectional quantitative scattering microscope, which detects both forward and backward scattered light from cells. This dual detection enables visualization of ...
