The mitotic spindle is the molecular machine that distributes the chromosomes to the two daughter cells. By developing techniques to look at the behaviour of individual microtubules within the spindle ...

The development of fluorescence microscopy technologies has made live-cell imaging routine for the current generation of cell biologists. However, the ability to visualize the cell's architecture was ...

Near-simultaneous three-dimensional fluorescence/differential interference contrast microscopy was used to follow the behavior of microtubules and chromosomes in ...

Every biology class learns about mitosis, which involves copying each of a cell's DNA-containing chromosomes, then separating them into two newly created cells. The act of chromosome separation is ...
