Brookhaven National Laboratory, the Upton-based research facility, broke ground recently for its Laboratory of BioMolecular Structure. The facility, which should be running fully in 2020, will serve ...

Scientists have developed a new imaging technique that uses a novel contrast mechanism in bioimaging to merge the strengths ...

For the first time, labs around the world can 3D print their own precision microscopes, thanks to a new open-source design. For the first time, labs around the world can 3D print their own precision ...

There are now various attachments that allow you to capture microscope-scale images with your smartphone. Unfortunately, however, the limitations of the phone's lens and image sensor mean that those ...

In modern research, you're looking for smaller and fainter details. Your success depends upon discriminating between effects and background. Learn about instruments you can choose for your research ...

The nanoscale X-ray imaging of biological samples could soon be routine in any lab thanks to a breakthrough by physicists in the US. The team has shown that lensless X-ray microscopes do not ...

What’s a budding scientist to do when he/she can’t gain practice doing science in an actual lab? Why, take advantage of virtual labs, of course! The Virtual Labs: Using a Microscope app is one of a ...

UCLA researchers determined sperm carrying a Y chromosome swim differently than sperm carrying an X chromosome. In a study published October, Aydogan Ozcan, professor of electrical and computer ...

A donation from the Nuclear Waste Management Organization will help Lakehead University scientists see certain things more clearly. With a Keyence petrographic microscope and mineral element analyzer ...

Biologists, instrument developers, and computational scientists have for the first time measured the density of a relatively inscrutable, highly condensed form of chromosomal material (heterochromatin ...

Germany’s Max Planck Society and the microscope maker Leica Microsystems have joined forces to commercialize a new technique to allow optical microscopes to look at even smaller objects than was ...
