Researchers from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus and the University of Colorado Boulder have won a $2 million grant allowing them to refine a unique microscope they have developed ...

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

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

Researchers designed a computational framework that consists of a compact metalens-integrated microscope and a transformer-based neural network, which enables large FOV and subpixel resolution imaging ...

Ryan Clancy is an engineering and tech (mainly, but not limited to those fields!!) freelance writer and blogger, with 5+ years of mechanical engineering experience and 10+ years of writing experience.

Brain functions stem from and rely on electrical signals created and propagated by neurons. As such, scientists measure electrical signals to study neuronal function at both single-cell and systemic ...

Aside from reprogramming and transdifferentiation, the longer-existing approach to generating neurons and NSCs has been differentiating them from pluripotent cells, initially from embryonic stem cells ...

Biological cells process data and perform computations all the time. They take inputs in the form of external stimuli and produce specific responses. Recently, scientists have been looking at ways to ...

The reason these cells had not been characterized before, he said, was because neural stem cells are usually isolated from a later stage. Macklis said he would be interested to see the results of in ...

Illustration of multi-focus scanning with DEEPscope, imaging a neuron deep within the brain. Researchers at Cornell have unveiled an advanced imaging technology capable of unprecedented deep and ...
