University of Virginia scientists discover new cell organelle called "hemifusome" that helps manage cellular recycling.

Microscopy refers to any method used to acquire images of nearby objects at resolutions that greatly exceed the resolving ability of the unaided human eye. Object visualization may be mediated by ...

The last time we used a scanning electron microscope (a SEM), it looked like something from a bad 1950s science fiction movie. These days SEMs, like the one at the IBM research center, look like ...

A new method in electron microscopy enables sub-20-picometer targeting of individual atoms without prior exposure, opening ...

Scientists say they captured 3D images of a new organelle they're calling a "hemifusome," which may be a recycling center in ...

In 2017, the GW4 Alliance opened a £2.3 million shared facility for high resolution electron cryo-microscopy at the University of Bristol. The purchase of the state-of-the-art electron cryo-microscope ...

Cryoelectron microscopy is a method for imaging frozen-hydrated specimens at cryogenic temperatures by electron microscopy. Specimens remain in their native state without the need for dyes or ...

Specifically, the electron detector is designed for use in a scanning electron microscope, which is typically used for inspecting the surface of a sample and retrieving a high-resolution, 3D image ...

In 1977, the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to Roger Guillemin and Andrew Schally for their discovery and synthesis of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), a key regulator of ...

Large-scale microscopy combined with tissue clearing and expansion enables nanoscale imaging of centimeter scale specimens.

The JEOL JSM-6500F is a Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM) w/Electron Beam Lithography attachment, and Nanometer Pattern Generation Systems (NPGS). It offers high resolution images of ...
