Scientists at the University of Oxford demonstrate an approach to interpreting how materials interact with polarized light, ...

A new microscopy technique allows scientists to see single-atom-thick boron nitride by making it glow under infrared light.

Researchers have built a tiny, lightweight microscope that captures neuron activity with unprecedented speed that can be used in freely moving animals. The new tool could give scientists a more ...

Microscopic fibers secretly shape how every organ in the body works, yet they’ve been notoriously hard to study—until now. A new imaging technique called ComSLI reveals hidden fiber orientations in ...

Super-resolution microscopy includes a variety of microscopy techniques that increase the resolving ability of a light microscope well beyond the classical limits dictated by the diffraction barrier.

Chris Wedel is a fan of all things tech and gadgets. Living in rural Kansas with his wife and two young boys makes finding ways to stay online tricky — not to mention making my homestead smarter.

A research paper proposes a fully physically realized model for warp drive. This builds on an existing model that requires negative energy—an impossibility. The new model is exciting, but warp speed ...

Authors utilise scanning electron microscopy to show that Borrelia burgdorferi initiates systemic vascular spread by targeting pericytes, while crossing of the lymphatic endothelium occurs via ...
