Using machine learning to guide microscopes could reveal greater insights into the brain's connectome and deepen our ...

Researchers say the innovation, known as SmartEM, will speed scanning sevenfold and open the field of connectomics to a ...

Microscope images could be obtained much more quickly -- rather than one pixel at a time -- thanks to a new imaging method for neutral atomic beam microscopes. It could ultimately lead to engineers ...

One of the earliest iterations of the microscope was built in the 1600s by the microscopy pioneer Antonie van Leeuwenhoek. His work not only developed the field of microscopy but opened up the study ...

Left: Images of fluorescent particles that are above, at and below (top to bottom) the vertical position of best focus of a microscope. Calibrating the effects of lens aberrations on the apparent ...

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

The sharpness of a light microscope is limited by physical conditions: structures that are closer together than 0.2 thousandths of a millimeter blur into each other - they can no longer be ...

The stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscope 1 provides spatial resolution well below the limit imposed by the diffraction of light. This breakthrough is obtained by considering the fluorophore ...

For centuries, the field of pathology has been defined by a single instrument: the microscope. But according to William ...

Scientists have been able to boost current super-resolution microscopy by a novel tweak. They coated the glass cover slip as part of the sample carrier with tailor-made biocompatible nanosheets that ...

A close-up of the magnetic encoding device before it was attached. The atomic beam enters the device through the hollow white ceramic tube shown. Microscope images could be obtained much more quickly ...
