A team led by Raju Tomer, professor of biological sciences at Columbia University, has created a new design for microscopes ...

A Columbia University-led team has developed a revolutionary microscopy technology that could dramatically advance ...

Nearly 100 years ago, a seemingly simple discovery revolutionized the microscope. The introduction of phase contrast, which ...

Standard genetic sequencing approaches can tell you a lot about the genetic makeup and activity in a sample, like a piece of tissue or drop of blood. But they don't tell you where specific genetic ...

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 ...

A research team from HKU Engineering has pioneered a fundamentally new imaging strategy known as AIMED (Arbitrary illumination microscopy with encoded depth), which utilizes a sub-sampling approach.

Deep inside a small, windowless room at the University of California, Berkeley, two microscopes are quietly capturing some of ...

3D microscopes are used in applications from the life sciences to semiconductor manufacturing. Now engineers are developing patented and patent-pending innovations making them work faster to capture ...

Engineers, lab scientists, and medical workers who must view magnified 3D images produced with two different cameras for long periods of time typically suffer from eye fatigue and other discomfort. A ...
