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

Human cells are extremely small and tightly packed – at about 20 micrometers across, roughly one-fifth the width of a human ...

Using a tiny, spherical glass lens sandwiched between two brass plates, the 17th-century Dutch microscopist Antonie van Leeuwenhoek was the first to officially describe red blood cells and sperm cells ...

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 new hybrid microscope for the first time allows scientists to simultaneously image the full 3D orientation and position of an ensemble of molecules, such as labeled proteins inside cells. (Nanowerk ...

One of the most well-studied cellular responses is how they react during times of stress, such as when the temperature gets ...

Human bodies are usually described as chemical engines, powered by glucose and oxygen. Yet a wave of new research suggests ...
