Researchers at the University of Arizona (UA) have developed a prototype of a new microscope technology that could help surgeons work with a greater degree of accuracy. The new technology, call ...

This article discusses what a digital microscope is, how it works, and the benefits of using one. It also provides some examples of how they are used. Rather than using an eyepiece, a digital ...

Australian researchers have demonstrated a quantum microscope that can break through a fundamental barrier faced by regular microscopes and see tiny structures that are normally invisible. The device ...

Question from Nora in Ms. Fitzpatrick’s class. A microscope is an instrument that lets you magnify and see really small things that you cannot distinguish with your naked eye. The earliest microscopes ...

Confocal laser scanning microscopes (CLSMs) use a laser to generate a digital image of a given sample. Confocal microscopes work in tandem with ‘fluorescent tagging’, which involves the alteration of ...

Like our eyes, microscopes are limited in what they can see because of their resolution, or their ability to see detail. The detail, or information, from the object is there, but some of it gets lost ...

For the first time, scientists have peered into living cells and created videos showing how they function with unprecedented 3D detail. Using a special microscope and new lighting techniques, a team ...

UCLA engineers are touting a lens-free cell phone microscope -- a telemedicine innovation lauded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, National Geographic and the National Science Foundation-- as a ...

Within a modest engineering laboratory at Duke University, ATOMIC — an AI microscope developed by Haozhe “Harry” Wang’s team ...

William Moerner was awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry Wednesday for work on super-resolved fluorescence microscopy. The prize was awarded jointly to Moerner, Eric Betzig of Virginia’s Howard Hughes ...
