A new two-photon fluorescence microscope developed at UC Davis can capture high-speed images of neural activity at cellular resolution thanks to a new adaptive sampling scheme and line illumination.

Biologists are very interested in how proteins, lipids and other compounds are organized and interact in systems. Very few organizational details can be gained by using standard transmission-based ...

A project at the Janelia Research Campus of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) has adapted an astronomical imaging technique for use with fluorescence microscopy, as an alternative to existing ...

The InverTau™ FLIM platform enables software-controlled confocal imaging and can be integrated into existing or complete ...

Observing proteins precisely within cells is extremely important for many branches of research but has been a significant technical challenge -- especially in living cells, as the required fluorescent ...

How physically magnifying objects using a key ingredient in diapers has opened an unprecedented view of the microbial world.

Observing individual cells through microscopes can reveal a range of important cell biological phenomena that frequently play a role in human diseases, but the process of distinguishing single cells ...

By combining two fundamentally different microscopy techniques, researchers can now measure the optical properties of a ...
