About forty microscopes, various laboratories, and some 15,000 zebrafish: that's Sylvia le Dévédec's workplace. She is one of ...

One of the toughest problems in biology is how to take a microscope picture of a healthy living cell. Most tissue cells, whether animal or vegetable, are transparent to ordinary light. To make them ...

Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have developed a new “self-driving” microscope that addresses two major ...

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 have succeeded in developing a microscope ...

Stanford researchers have combined two microscopy techniques to create a one-of-a-kind instrument that can show cell structures interacting in real time at an unprecedented 120-nanometer ...

A new technique keeps cells alive during extraction to track the activity of thousands of genes across time. The breakthrough method is called Live-seq. RNA sequencing allows scientists to study the ...

Given troves of data about genes and cells, A.I. models have made some surprising discoveries. What could they teach us someday? Credit...Doug Chayka Supported by By Carl Zimmer In 1889, a French ...

Bart Deplancke, PhD, a scientist at EPFL, is a senior author of the study. Until now all genome-wide sequencing technologies killed the cell to gain glimpses into its secrets. This technical ...

A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair. Instead of choosing between seeing big structures or tiny particles, researchers ...
