With a so-called cryo plasma-FIB (Plasma Focused Ion Beam) scanning electron microscope with nanomanipulator, Goethe University in Frankfurt (Germany) is expanding its research infrastructure with a ...

A new study led by Pierre Close's team (GIGA, Laboratory of Cancer Signaling, and WELRI Investigator) reveals how subtly ...

New NE-AFM method measures nuclear stiffness in living cells. It shows cancer nuclei change softness with chromatin and environment, aiding diagnosis and treatment. By employing a technique called ...

MSK researchers are shedding new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that can cause DNA replication to stall. The structures are a potential therapeutic target in cancer. Image ...

Explore how correlative light and electron microscopy (CLEM) enables high-resolution insights into endocytic sorting.

An oncology student has shocked TikTok with a viral video that offers a glimpse into how quickly cancer cells can grow. The microscope footage, shared by Sophie Williams, 23, a final-year PhD student ...

Cryogenic microscopy at Diamond Light Source enables high-resolution, correlative imaging of cells under near-physiological ...

Can the bend of a banana give us insight into cancer? What does the shape of a rice grain have to do with infertility? The ...

Scientists at Oregon State University have engineered a powerful new nanomaterial that zeroes in on cancer cells and destroys them from the inside out. Designed to exploit cancer’s unique ...

Electron microscopy is a powerful technique that provides high-resolution images by focusing a beam of electrons to reveal fine structural details in biological and material specimens. 2 Because ...
