Scientists have just created a new, strange type of molecule. It’s made of a bunch of atoms bound together in a ring, like ...

This, in turn, altered the configuration of the orbitals to achieve the half-Möbius configuration that the researchers were ...

Both for research and medical purposes, researchers have spent decades pushing the limits of microscopy to produce ever deeper and sharper images of brain activity, not only in the cortex but also in ...

Two heads are better than one, as the saying goes, and sometimes two instruments, ingeniously recombined, can accomplish feats that neither could have done on its own. The microscope combines ...

When single-molecule super-resolution microscopes were first commercialized some 15 years ago, they made headlines for their ability to resolve individual molecules and structures at the nanometer ...

A ring of 13 carbon atoms and two chlorine atoms has a remarkable molecular structure that means you would have to go around ...

Research led by scientists at Washington State University has revealed insights on how plants form a microscopic landscape of proteins crucial to photosynthesis, the basis of Earth's food and energy ...

Current genetic sequencing techniques can provide much information about the genetic makeup and activity in a sample, like a piece of tissue or a drop of blood. But they are unable to reveal where ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers at the University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG), Germany, have developed a new method that makes it possible for the first time to image the three-dimensional shape of ...

When cell samples stained with these molecules are examined using two-photon microscopy, the molecules behave as if they were ...
