Researchers have shown that consumer-grade 3D printers and low-cost materials can be used to produce multi-element optical ...

Three-dimensional (3D) super-resolution microscopy is essential to study the minute structural details of cells and analyze molecular dynamics. Recently, researchers at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität ...

Existing super-resolution techniques still face considerable challenges in complex deep tissue environments. For example, Stimulated Emission Depletion (STED) microscopy relies on a doughnut-shaped ...

Latest super-resolution microscopy methods now achieve an optical resolution in the range of a few nanometers. This corresponds to a resolution in the range of the size of cellular molecules. However, ...

- Professors Hao F. Zhang and Xiaomin Bao’s groups used super-resolution imaging on human skin cells for the first time. - The researchers explored the gateways between the cells’ cytoplasm and ...

To unravel the complexities of biological phenomena, scientists have long relied on microscopy to visualize the intricate details of their specimens, including tissue architecture, cell morphology, ...

Example of super-resolution microscopy: The image shows how the Discrete Molecular Imaging (DMI) technology visualizes densely packed individual targets that are just 5 nanometer apart from each other ...

There is a growing demand for non-invasive insights into the complex three-dimensional subcellular dynamics within living tissues on the frontier of biological research. To achieve simultaneous ...

Even those who maintain that super-resolution microscopy is a powerful tool of biological discovery have admitted that it may have a bit of an image problem. For example, in a recent review, several ...
