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

Trinity College Dublin now has Ireland’s first and only BioBrillouin microscope, which will enable researchers to make giant strides in the fields of inflammation, cancer, developmental biology and ...

Researchers at Helmholtz Munich and the Technical University of Munich have developed a new microscope that significantly improves how bioluminescent signals in living cells can be observed. The ...

Dissociating tissues into single cells is a core laboratory technique and vital for widely used applications such as next-generation sequencing or flow cytometry. Scientists who employ tissue ...

Weighing a single living cell sounds like a party trick, yet the numbers involved are so small that they push the limits of ...

Epithelial tissues are in constant interaction with their environment. Maintaining their functionality requires dynamic balance (homeostasis) and that their cell numbers are tightly regulated. This is ...

A small tweak to mitochondrial energy production led to big gains in health and longevity. Mice engineered to boost a protein that helps mitochondria work more efficiently lived longer and showed ...

Scientists mapped where drugs bind inside the body, cell by cell, to better understand benefits and side effects.

A newly discovered cell type could transform how plastic surgeries are performed—from facial reconstructions to nose jobs. Cartilage transplants are central to many procedures, being used to fix cleft ...
