This internal left-right asymmetry is believed to begin at the very early stage of development -- when a tiny embryo is divided into two parts during a process called gastrulation. This process ...

Most animals, including humans, have bilateral symmetry, which means our bodies are pretty symmetrical. At least on the ...

Understanding how tumors alter their metabolism to evade treatments is an increasingly important area of cancer research.

As reported in Biophotonics Discovery, the team developed a novel microscopy technique that uses a standard fluorescence microscope in combination with imaging software. This method allows scientists ...

Understanding how tumors change their metabolism to resist treatments is a growing focus in cancer research. As cancer cells adapt to therapies, their metabolism often shifts, which can help them ...

Studies in mice show that microplastics entering the bloodstream are engulfed by immune cells, forming clusters that can ...

Escherichia coli bacteria imaged by high-speed inline force mapping and fluorescence microscopy. Simultaneous topography and elastic modulus maps show a stiffening of the division site.

Escherichia coli bacteria imaged by high-speed inline force mapping and fluorescence microscopy. Simultaneous topography and ...

Scientists demonstrate how T4 bacteriophages can calibrate super-resolution microscopes with nanometer accuracy, enabling ...

More than 130 years after a fungus-eating orchid species was discovered, the purpose of its mysterious appendage has been ...

ExM provides comparable detail using standard equipment, making nanoscale imaging available to anyone with a fluorescence microscope. “It’s the super-resolution technique for poor people ...
