Biologists are very interested in how proteins, lipids and other compounds are organized and interact in systems. Very few ...

Two-photon fluorescence microscopy has significantly enhanced researchers' ability to do just that, and the lab of Spencer LaVere Smith, an associate professor in the Department of Electrical and ...

Using this optical unit, we constructed a two-photon excitation light-sheet microscopy, which makes it possible to perform whole-body imaging of medaka larvae with cellular resolution. 3.

Lens-free fluorescence microscopy To downsize the microscope, Verellen’s team removed the key part of standard optical microscopes: the lens. Lens-free options exist for light microscopy, where the ...

Until today, skin, brain, and all tissues of the human body were difficult to observe in detail with an optical microscope, ...

There was just one problem with the prototype FIB-SEM: it didn’t have an optical microscope attached, which means that the cryo-ET grid had to be moved to perform fluorescence microscopy.

With the new Keck grant, the researchers will modify their current AO confocal microscope into a two-photon AO microscopy system. “Our two main goals are to develop the fluorescent protein guide stars ...

When studied under a microscope, the individual silver particles also display a property that may enable an increase in optical storage density. Once photoactivated, silver oxide films exhibit bright ...

Neurovascular coupling (NVC) is the dynamic regulation of cerebral blood flow in response to neural activity. Specifically, ...
