Light microscopy is one of the most essential technologies in life science research. Advances in optoelectronic detectors and the widespread availability of laser-based light sources have led to ...

The lightsheet system is perfect for capturing 3D fluorescent images of organisms, tissue explants, and cell cultures over long periods. Basically, it shines a thin sheet of laser light on a slice of ...

LightSheet microscopy is a fluorescence technique that projects a thin ‘sheet’ of excitation light perpendicular to the direction of observation. This type of a system uses cylindrical optics to focus ...

The technique can now be used to image viscoelastic properties of biological samples much more quickly and safely, at high ...

A whole-body immunostaining method allowed researchers to achieve cellular resolution at the whole-organism level.

While medical centers use ultrasound daily, so far this technology is not capable of observing body tissues at the scale of ...

Dr. Pyrgaki is an expert in advanced microscopy techniques, including live-cell imaging, super-resolution microscopy, advanced light-sheet microscopy, and multi-photon imaging. She specializes in the ...

Researchers from the University of Technology Delft, the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience and Caltech have developed a ...

A supplement contextualizes key advances in light microscopy over 400 years, while the Tara expedition sets sail to explore oceanic ecosystems at the microscopic level. Microscopes were also in ...

A super-resolution microscopy technique offers an unparalleled glimpse into how monoclonal antibodies bind to their targets ...

“By working with industry to acquire the lattice light sheet scope, we can now analyse highly dynamic processes such as cell division with unprecedented resolution in both time and space.” — Professor ...
