A team of researchers at the University of Victoria (UVic) have achieved an advance in electron microscopy that will allow scientists to visualize atomic-scale structures with unprecedented clarity ...

Electron microscopy is a powerful imaging technique that utilizes a beam of accelerated electrons to visualize and analyze the structure, composition, and properties of materials at the nanoscale.

More than 97% of electron microscope images aren’t reported in peer-reviewed scientific papers, according to a large-scale ...

New research led by the University of Victoria (UVic) and published in Nature Communications, opens the door to more accessible microscopy for labs around the world. The new technique allows for ...

At their core, electron microscopes work a lot like a movie projectors. A high-powered beam passes through a material and it projects something — usually something we really want to see — onto a ...

The dehydration of rat optic nerve has been studied by allowing specimens to become partially or fully dried before fixation and preparation for electron microscopy. A correlation is established ...

Most people carry the fungus Candida albicans on their bodies, without this causing many problems. However, a systemic infection with this fungus is dangerous and difficult to treat. Few ...

Fossilized fish ear stones—known as otoliths—can reveal far more than previously thought. In a recent study, a team of ...
