Despite having extensive research about living and non-living things, mankind is still barely touching the surface of science, and there are many questions still left unanswered. In order to answer ...

A clear view of anatomical structures is vital for the success of surgery—especially in microsurgery where narrow anatomical cavities or proximity to vulnerable organs and tissues can pose significant ...

When designing microscopes, optical engineers have long faced a trade-off between speed, field of view and resolution. But ...

Electrical engineers at the University of California San Diego developed a technology that improves the resolution of an ordinary light microscope so that it can be used to directly observe finer ...

Researchers have developed an optical toolbox to build microscopes for a few hundred euros that deliver high-resolution images comparable to commercial microscopes that cost up to a thousand times ...

Learn about how Mark Raizen and his team at UT Austin have developed the world's highest resolution atom lens. An atom lens is analogous to a glass lens used in an optical microscope or magnifying ...

If you walked into a classroom laboratory you would probably see a cupboard full of microscopes, used maybe just a handful of times a year, old but still in good shape, clean and ready to go. Then ...
