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

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

Researchers have developed a high-speed 3D imaging microscope that can capture detailed cell dynamics of an entire small whole organism at once. The ability to image 3D changes in real time over a ...

Researchers have shown that consumer-grade 3D printers and low-cost materials can be used to produce multi-element optical ...

Measurement software Measurement functions (2D, 3D, Time-lapse, Map imaging), Viewing measurement and sampling data, Reporting functions (Image data, Video data), Whole-cell sampling, Intracellular ...

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

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.

Researchers used consumer-grade 3D printers to create sub-$1 optical lenses that enable super-resolution nanoscale biological ...

Brain functions stem from and rely on electrical signals created and propagated by neurons. As such, scientists measure electrical signals to study neuronal function at both single-cell and systemic ...

Imaging live cells without disrupting their natural behavior or damaging their structures is one key challenge in biomedical optics, and has been tackled in multiple ways. A project at NIST has now ...
