Leica Microsystems has introduced the Viventis SCAPE light sheet microscope, a system designed for rapid 3D imaging of live biological samples.

How do photosynthetic organisms harvest light so efficiently? To help answer this question, researchers have developed an ultrafast transient absorption microscope with sensitivity approaching the ...

Scientists at Heriot‑Watt University have demonstrated in a world-first, that light can be used to control every aspect of how electromagnetic waves oscillate, opening new technological frontiers.

A new optical device allows researchers to generate and switch between two stable, donut-shaped light patterns called skyrmions. These light vortices hold their shape even when disturbed, making them ...

This manuscript has convincing data that provides a high-resolution structure of the Egl-RNA complex. The findings are important to understand the formation, stability, and interactions of this ...

Imagine a display that harvests ambient light when it is not actively in use, offsetting some of its own energy consumption.

This valuable study reports a spatiotemporal atlas of mouse placental development and explores the role of glycogen trophoblast cells in fetal viability. Solid data are presented to support the main ...

Human cells adjust to ever-changing conditions while preserving internal states necessary for survival, but exactly how they ...

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — For three nights, 50 blocks of Central Avenue in St. Pete will be illuminated with a rainbow of laser lights. The lights will project off the roof of the Mari Jean Hotel and end ...
