A new invention—a robotic microscope—is opening the way for scientists to track changes in cells over time as genes are expressed and the resulting proteins go into action. Tracking this dynamic ...

University of Arizona researchers have built the world’s fastest electron microscope that stops motion at a mind-boggling one quintillionth second. This revolutionary ‘attomicroscope’ lets us see what ...

The saying goes, “Lightning never strikes the same place twice.” But what's in a saying? Dr. Eric Betzig recently showed creating one revolutionary new microscope doesn’t mean he can’t create another.

Progress in science is often linked to better ways of seeing: Stronger telescopes bring more stars into view, microscopes made bacteria vivid, new genomic techniques tease out once-hidden forms of ...

University of Arkansas’ assistant professor of biomedical engineering Timothy Muldoon has developed an endoscopic fiber-optic microscope capable of assisting medical staff in diagnosing the early ...

In Washington last week Hamilton Watch Co.’s Research Director George Paul Luckey told the Horological Institute about the “time microscope,” a device has contrived for making quick tests of a watch’s ...

How are Electron Microscopes Used? There are a number of electron microscopy techniques, such as cryo-electron microscopy, that are normally used for imaging biological structures. Some of the most ...

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 ...
