Biology students at Dakota Wesleyan University have new technology to use when in the lab. Dr. Tim Mullican, professor of biology, says two recently purchased Richter microscopes with cameras will ...

As you might expect from Georgia Tech, over the years biology lab courses have adopted more innovative teaching techniques. They have embraced the inquiry-based model of lab education where students ...

Microscopy data of immune cells called macrophages were collected and analyzed by Williamson and Byerly and published as part ...

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 ...

One look through something called a confocal microscope was all it took for William Sunderland to make a drastic change in his career plans. A math student with what appeared to be a bright future in ...

Biomedical research involves getting a close look at what’s happening inside of cells. Usually, that happens after cells are grown on a glass slide and then fixed in place. They can then be treated so ...

Just weeks after winning a Nobel Prize for his work in microscopy, Eric Betzig has done it again. He and his colleagues have developed a revolutionary new microscopy technique that allows scientists ...

We all know that seeing is believing. This has led scientists to image cells with microscopes as early as 1658. 1 Since then, microscopy has significantly modernized, and has become a ubiquitous tool ...

The intricate, hidden processes that sustain coral life are being revealed through a new microscope developed by scientists at UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The diver-operated ...

Or more precisely, as neuroscientist Eric Betzig and his colleagues put it in today’s issue of Science: “Every living thing is a complex thermodynamic pocket of reduced entropy through which matter ...
