For the first time, scientists can watch living Antarctic fish cells at work in real time, and it's already showing how extreme environments can force living things to adapt even at the microscopic ...

(Iana Kunitsa/Moment/Getty Images) Every cell in your body is running on tiny power stations. Mitochondria turn energy from ...

Antarctic fish spend their entire lives in water cold enough to push cellular machinery to its limits. Yet somehow, their ...

We reach for brighter, better lighting for sharper pictures, whether we're photographing a puppy or a microscopic cell. In most cases, the light comes from outside the object being photographed. A ...

Engineers have built the first microscope to see inside living cells in sub-zero conditions, revealing secrets of Antarctic fish survival.

A new fluorescence microscopy technique that generates super-resolution images from a single camera exposure could help researchers study rapid movements within cells that are difficult to capture ...

Researchers developed fluorescent dyes that reveal DNA packing in living cells and could help scientists study changes linked to cancer.

Imaging living cells in 3D Now, the team of scientists has managed to image specifically labeled cells in 3D with ultrasound. For the first time, they imaged living cells inside whole organs across ...

In a groundbreaking study on the synthesis of cellulose—a major constituent of all plant cell walls—a team of Rutgers University-New Brunswick researchers have captured images of the microscopic ...

While medical centers use ultrasound daily, so far this technology has not been capable of observing body tissues at the scale of cells. Physicists have now developed a microscopy technique based on ...
