A team of researchers in Germany and Australia recently used a new microscopy technique to image nano-scale biological structures at a previously unmanageable resolution, without destroying the living ...

The first detailed snapshots of the structure of a membrane pore that enables epithelial cells to absorb calcium have now been captured by researchers. The findings could accelerate the development of ...

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 ...

There's a problem in cell biology research: to study what happens inside a cell, it has to be destroyed. When scientists use a traditional microscope to observe a cell, they use stains -- chemicals ...

A team of researchers from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine have used Nobel prize-winning microscope technology to see full length serotonin receptors for the first time. The tiny ...

Kanazawa University, report in ACS Applied Nano Materials a new method to precisely measure nuclear elasticity—the stiffness ...

Any kid who ever paged through The Magic School Bus at their school’s book fair or watched the animated show on TV in the Nineties definitely fantasized about diving into the cells of the human body, ...

On December 14, Nanolive will launch a new type of microscope. For the first time, this new tool will allow researchers to peer inside living cells without damaging them – i.e. without having to ...

A hidden structure inside the cell is rewriting how scientists understand leukemia. Beneath the microscope, what looked like ...
