Unraveling the mysteries of how biological organisms function begins with understanding the molecular interactions within and ...
Scientists can peer into cells to get a limited view of their activity using microscopes and other tools. However, cells and ...
Scientists have developed a groundbreaking cryo-optical microscopy technique that freezes living cells mid-action, capturing ultra-detailed snapshots of fast biological processes. By rapidly ...
Metabolism, far from being just a housekeeping function, underlies all changes in cell size and function ...
Fluorescence microscopy reveals cellular morphology and dynamics in remarkable detail, but achieving clear visualization at fast acquisition rates remains a challenge. A fundamental trade-off between ...
Scientists achieved “a milestone” by charting the activity and structure of 200,000 cells in a mouse brain and their 523 million connections. A neuron extends an axon to make contact with other ...
Researchers use biocompatible polydopamine nanoparticles and near-infrared light to remotely trigger activity in neuron and muscle cells with minimal side effects. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Remote control ...
