At the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, scientists are using a cutting-edge microscope, the first of its kind in the world, to image whole cells in 3-D with the penetrating power of x-rays. The ...
Plant and animal cells can be seen with a microscope. Find out more with Bitesize. For students between the ages of 11 and 14.
Researchers have combined two microscopic imaging techniques in one microscope, providing scientists with a high-resolution method of tracking single molecules in a cellular context, letting them ...
Researchers have developed a new X-ray nanotomography microscope. Using their new system, they can reveal the structures on the smallest components of mammalian cells in three dimensions.
A new kind of microscope has been invented that is able to non-invasively take a three dimensional look inside living cells with stunning results (Images courtesy of Betzig, Planchon, and Gao) 9 / 9 ...
Peering inside cells has been an integral part of biology ever since the 17th century, when cells were discovered under a microscope. But even with advances in light and electron microscopy ...
The scale bar represents 4 micrometers.) Go, T cell, go! T Cell Approaches Target Over 200 Seconds Betzig Lab, HHMI. Here’s a closer look at that T cell from different angles. Look at that ...
Betzig, along with collaborators at six other institutions in the U.S. and Europe, has developed a new microscope that ditches the caricature, capturing the riotous action inside living cells.
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 ...
Then, the AI uses deep learning to distinguish the difference between healthy and cancer riddled white blood cells. The photonic time stretch microscope images cells without causing them harm and ...
Researchers at NIH have developed two new microscopes, both the first of their kind. The first captures small, fast moving organisms at an unprecedented rate and the second displays large cell ...
All living organisms are made up of cells. Cells are the smallest part of a living organism and are around 0.01 mm - 0.03 mm long. To look at a cell close up a microscope needs to be used.
