A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.

What do you get when you cross a day job as a Medical Histopathologist with an interest in 3D printing and programming? You get a fully-baked Open Source microscope ...

Researchers have incorporated a swept illumination source into an open-top light-sheet microscope to enable improved optical sectioning over a larger area of view. The advance makes the technique more ...

A microscope that cost less than £50 and took under 3 hours to build using a common 3D printer could be transformative for ...

For the majority of fluorescence microscopy experiments, controlling all components through software is the most efficient way to achieve optimum settings – and optimum results. Many modern LED ...

"Our dream was to invent a window into the brain, so we could see what happens inside when we’re thinking, planning, feeling, and remembering,” says Professor May-Britt Moser, describing conversations ...

A new microscope is capable of live imaging of biological processes in such detail that moving protein complexes are visible. In Nijmegen, the world's first microscope has been installed that is ...

Constructed from sturdy materials, with interchangeable stage plates, the Celestron Labs S10-60 has a professional, robust feel, provides a wide range of low-powered, clear, 3D images and is a useful ...

In context: 3D printing is slowly becoming mainstream, having moved beyond functional prototyping, rapid tooling, trinkets, and toys. We have already seen people use 3D printers to create fashion ...
