Researchers at Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT-Italian Institute of Technology) have developed an innovative microscopy ...

Fluorescence nanoscopy has transformed our ability to visualize and discover biological structures. In recent years, ultraprecise single-molecule localization techniques such as MINFLUX and RASTMIN ...

It is the computational processing of images that reveals the finest details of a sample placed under all kinds of different light microscopes. Even though this processing has come a long way, there ...

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

Taking images of tiny structures within cells is tricky business. One technique, cryogenic electron tomography (cryoET), shoots electrons through a frozen sample. The images formed by the electrons ...

"New microscopy techniques, particularly those involving fluorescence microscopy and the new fluorescent probes that are being developed, have made it possible for researchers to do many different ...

A decade ago, the Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to a trio of researchers for the development of super-resolved fluorescence microscopy. The announcement at the time stated that the researchers’ ...

Researchers commonly employ fluorescence microscopy to characterize molecular, cellular, and developmental processes in depth. Despite its benefits, scientists can face challenges when imaging their ...

Unlike most organic fluorophores, which typically measure below 1 nm, nanomaterials range between 1 and 100 nm, allowing them to function as distinct entities with a loadable surface. The success of ...
