Hidden inside every organ, microscopic fibers form a scaffolding that quietly shapes how we move, think, and heal. For the first time, scientists have produced detailed maps of these fiber webs across ...

Expansion microscopy (ExM) is an attractive route to nanoscale imaging for labs without conventional super-resolution microscopes. It involves linking fluorescent markers through a gel infused into ...

Research led by Zhejiang Agriculture and Forestry University in China has performed a metadata investigation into the presence of microplastics in humans. They report a concerning relationship between ...

Scientists found microplastics in all examined human brains in a recent study, with highest levels discovered in dementia ...

Both for research and medical purposes, researchers have spent decades pushing the limits of microscopy to produce ever deeper and sharper images of brain activity, not only in the cortex but also in ...

Researchers say study findings have highlighted biomarkers that could help improve early diagnosis of esophageal cancer, when it is easier to treat.

Micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) are everywhere—from the air we breathe to the food we eat—but their impact on human health is not entirely clear. While cell culture and animal studies hint at potential ...

A groundbreaking study from the University of Miami has uncovered an alarming presence of microplastics in human reproductive tissue, adding to growing concerns about environmental contamination and ...
