1) Microscope slides and coverglass are used in many parts of the lab while knowledge of how these items are made and the technical properties they have is limited. 2) By not understanding the ...

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 ...

A physics-based autofocus method uses dual LED lighting to detect and correct defocus in microscopes. It enhances imaging ...

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 ...

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 ...

Researchers are deploying advanced AI systems to dramatically improve scientific imaging, data analysis, and laboratory workflows. New techniques, such as UC San Diego’s AI-enhanced live-cell ...

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 ...

For the first time, labs around the world can 3D print their own precision microscopes to analyse samples and detect diseases , thanks to an open-source design created at the University of Bath. The ...

Using a microscope invented at the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL), a collaborative team of biologists, instrument developers, and computational scientists has for the first time measured the ...

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 ...
