Some of biology’s most visually striking images come from fluorescence microscopes. Their brilliant colors on black look like a neon sign from an empty highway. A brand new fluorescence microscope is ...

Scanning one of those strange, square QR codes with your phone looks like a quaint invention compared to a new development from researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). They ...

The Pathology Core laboratory is equipped with a Nikon E-1000 upright fluorescent microscope equipped with 4x, 10x, 20x and 40x dry objectives and 40x and 60x oil immersion objectives. The microscope ...

Advancing our understanding of the human brain will require new insights into how neural circuitry works in mammals, including laboratory mice. These investigations require monitoring brain activity ...

Biologists are very interested in how proteins, lipids and other compounds are organized and interact in systems. Very few organizational details can be gained by using standard transmission-based ...

A fluorescent microscope is a device used to examine the amount and type of fluorescence emitted by a sample. Unlike a conventional microscope, a fluorescent microscope creates readable images through ...

A new microscopy tool gives neuroscientists a never-before-seen view into the cellular networks underlying behavior. A model of the miniature fluorescent microscope (miniscope). Source: miniscope.org ...

This fluorescent microscopy image shows embryonic mouse neurons (green), astrocytes (red), and cell nuclei (blue). University of Tokyo researchers in the lab of Professor Yukiko Gotoh study the ...

CellScope, a microscope camera made by pairing a cell phone and a special lens, is now powerful enough to capture images of bacteria labeled with fluorescent markers. Former CNET editor Dong Ngo has ...

Chip technology presents a whole different view on microscopy. Chips are compact and can integrate multiple functionalities. The scaling possibilities could allow chip-based microscopes to be produced ...

Science professionals, doctoral and postdoctoral students from across the country will gather May 20 through 27 at the MDI Biological Laboratory in Bar Harbor, Maine, for an intensive one-week course ...
