Researchers from the Optics Group at the Universitat Jaume I in Castellón have managed to correct in real time problems ...

Scientists say their Stomata In-Sight tool can observe plants "breathe," which could be used to bioengineer crops that ...

Researchers at Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT-Italian Institute of Technology) have developed an innovative microscopy ...

A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.

Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a suite of algorithms to automate the counting of sister ...

Behold, the world’s fastest microscope: it works at such an astounding speed that it’s the first-ever device capable of capturing a clear image of moving electrons. This is a potentially ...

One aspect of working for Hackaday comes in our regular need to take good quality photographs for publication. I have a semi-decent camera that turns my inept pointing and shooting into passably good ...

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.

Biomedical engineering students Brandon Buscaglia and Marcus D’Aguiar are helping physicians see the invisible. The undergraduates developed a motorized stage and tracking prototype that works in ...

This degree of magnification and resolution is made possible by the use of a Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscope, or FIB-SEM. Ordinary microscopes will not produce the same results. Curious ...
