Researchers from the Optics Group at the Universitat Jaume I in Castellón have managed to correct in real time problems ...

Researchers have reported a sample-prior-based approach to point spread function decoupling that improves system ...

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

A new microscopy method enables researchers to visualize the activity of the enzymes caspase-3 and alkaline phosphatase in various biological samples (Nat. Methods 2024, DOI: ...

Until today, skin, brain, and all tissues of the human body were difficult to observe in detail with an optical microscope, since the contrast in the image was hindered by the high density of their ...

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

Scientists have developed a computational technique that greatly increases the resolution of atomic force microscopy, a specialized type of microscope that 'feels' the atoms at a surface. The method ...

In 1922, French physicist Léon Brillouin predicted an interesting phenomenon – when light is shone on a material, it interacts with the naturally occurring thermal vibrations within it, exchanging ...

Our brain is a complex organ. Billions of nerve cells are wired in an intricate network, constantly processing signals, enabling us to recall memories or to move our bodies. Making sense of this ...
