William & Mary art students studying scale got to see every aspect of tiny objects writ large as they learned to use the scanning electron microscope in the Small Hall Makerspace. The idea was to ...

Biologists and doctors rely heavily on incubators and microscopes. Now researchers have come up with a novel solution that combines the functions of both these tools in a compact and extremely ...

A new "self-driving" microscope developed by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers solves two fundamental challenges that have long plagued microscopy: first, imaging living cells or organisms at ...

UC Davis researchers have created a miniaturized microscope for real-time, high-resolution imaging of brain activity in mice.

Since the first transmission electron microscope was sold in 1935, microscopes that use electrons--rather than light waves--to image objects have brought into focus levels of detail that were ...

Multifocus microscope uses 25 tiny cameras to image rapid biological processes over the entire volume of small living organisms ...

Sub-Angstrom imaging has been a long-standing goal for electron microscopists because it would allow structures to be studied at the level of single atoms. Although sub-Angstrom information can be ...

Researchers at the University of California, Davis, have created a miniaturized microscope for real-time, high-resolution, ...

For sculptor Kendall Buster, there is no distinction between art and science. Trained as a microbiologist, she explores the forms and landscapes seen in a microscope lens through her giant sculptures.

Researchers have developed a way to retrofit the transmission electron microscope -- a long-standing scientific workhorse for making crisp microscopic images -- so that it can also create high-quality ...
