Nearly 150 years ago, scientists began to imagine how information might flow through the brain based on the shapes of neurons ...

To use a light microscope to examine animal or plant cells. To make observations and draw scale diagrams of cells. Turn the coarse focus so that the stage is as close to the objective lens as ...

Beyond the ladder-like structure described above ... However, it is possible to see chromosomes with a standard light microscope, as long as the chromosomes are in their most condensed form.

A team of researchers from the Netherlands and the U.S. has found a new way to concentrate light in an incredibly tiny ...

A layered transistor design combines light detection optical memory and neuromorphic processing in one unit offering compact ...

Each mineral type has a specific crystal structure, so they will show up differently in doubled polarized light, but their optical properties will also be specific for that mineral type. That means we ...

The determined protein structure of the GABAA receptor ... resolutions of more than 10 nanometers even with an older light microscope. "For comparison, our genetic material, DNA, has a diameter ...

The microscope operator has to flash freeze the sample. A better understanding of protein structure can further research into things such as enzyme action and help scientists develop better drugs.
