Stanford researchers have combined two microscopy techniques to create a one-of-a-kind instrument that can show cell ...

Tracking how cancer cells develop in real time How these differences in the genome and in epigenetic control arise in cells, and how they are passed on to their daughter and granddaughter cells, has ...

A new dual-light microscope lets researchers observe micro- and nanoscale activity inside living cells without using dyes. The system captures both detailed structures and tiny moving particles at ...

Neuroblastoma cancer cells before (left) and after (right) chemotherapy. The black threads are the cell's internal scaffolding, which breaks apart during treatment. This damage should kill the cell, ...

How do cells acquire their identities? In hopes of answering this question, a Duke team recently completed a study explaining the expression of stem cells after a decade of research. Stem cells are ...

Influenza viruses are among the most likely triggers of future pandemics. A research team has developed a method that can be used to study the interaction of viruses with host cells in unprecedented ...

This might be the beginning of arterial calcifications. It is an elekron microscopy image of calcified material forming deposits. This is the first time it was possible to show a biological process ...
