New Advanced Imaging Center Powered by Two MuVi and LCS SPIM Microscopes “By understanding how cells mobilize to build organs, researchers can glean insights into why some cells become cancerous and ...

Using a "spooky" phenomenon of quantum physics, Caltech researchers have discovered a way to double the resolution of light microscopes. In a paper appearing in the journal Nature Communications, a ...

Over the past few decades, light microscopy has become an important and widely used tool in forensic science research. It is a fast and accessible method, and is non-destructive, which is useful when ...

The world's most advanced light microscopes allow us to see single molecules, proteins, viruses and other very small biological structures -- but even the best microscopes have their limits. Now ...

The M25 multi-focus microscope uses separate cameras to capture images from 25 focal planes at different depths in a sample. (Photo by Eduardo Hirata) The aberration-corrected multi-focus microscopy ...

Since ancient times, it has been known that glass can bend light. Light is made up of electromagnetic waves and with properties such as wavelength and frequency, light usually behaves like a wave and ...

“By understanding how cells mobilize to build organs, researchers can glean insights into why some cells become cancerous and lead to organ destruction. Instruments such as these are useful for ...
