Rhobo6, a light microscopy probe, gives scientists an unprecedented look at the extracellular matrix -- the collection of organized molecular structures that fills the spaces between cells in our ...

Before arriving at Janelia three years ago, Postdoctoral Scientist Antonio Fiore was designing and building optical ...

When selecting a microscope, it’s important to consider various features, such as the field of view, frame construction, lighting, optical quality and resolution. There are several types of ...

into a fully functional optical microscope. “This opens the doors to democratized access, rapid prototyping, and bespoke design of microscopes and optics at a fraction of the price of traditional ...

These optical clocks are still being assessed, but already now, some are 100 times more accurate than cesium clocks. They will therefore become the future basis for the worldwide definition of the ...

When the German computer pioneer Konrad Zuse built the world’s first programmable computer in war time Berlin, it performed floating point arithmetic at a clock speed of between 5 and 10 Hz. The ...

Gadoquatrane, a contrast agent Bayer is developing for use in MRI scans, is able to detect regions of damage and other disease-related features while using 60% less gadolinium — a chemical ...

Researchers have now used the technology to build a fully functioning optical microscope for just $60. Researchers at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland, built the microscope using ...

The OpenFlexture Microscope is a DIY, open-source, 3D-printed microscope built around the Raspberry Pi 4, a Raspberry Pi Camera Module v2, and a choice of optics or various qualities up to lab-grade ...

The entire project plans are open-source and available for free. Credit: Liam Rooney “Optical microscopy has long been a cornerstone of scientific discovery, driving advances across diverse ...
