A hybrid microscope allows scientists to simultaneously image the full 3D orientation and position of an ensemble of molecules, such as labeled proteins inside cells. The microscope combines polarized ...

Scientists have now mapped the forces acting inside a proton, showing in unprecedented detail how quarks—the tiny particles ...

Specialized cell types, such as fibroblasts ... and adhesion forces in non-inflated and inflated lungs via atomic force microscopy, they found reduced stiffness in aged non-inflated lungs but ...

The original pixelsize during detection is shown in green. In March 2020 I attend the Trends in Microscopy (TiM-2020) summer school, an awesome event with microscopy hands on sessions from 9am - 12pm!

u-inferforce (Traction Force Microscopy) is a MATLAB software that reconstructs traction forces of cells adhered on elastic gel doped with beads.

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a technique originally ... coli at the] nanoscale level… remain elusive." During E. coli cell division, the researchers observed increased mechanical stiffening ...

Light microscopy makes it difficult to resolve smaller and smaller features, and electron microscopy resolves small structures, but samples must be meticulously prepared, killing any live specimens.

To address this issue, a team of researchers adapted the high-speed atomic force microscopy ... coli cells at both high resolution and speed. Light and electron microscopy have distinct limitations.
