In a new study, we and an international team scientists examined the behavior of marine viruses in a large band of ...

Despite their name, giant viruses are difficult to visualize in detail. They are too big for conventional electron microscopy, yet too small for optical microscopy used to study larger specimen. Now, ...

We’ll understand if you’re puzzled by the eerie image below. It’s a tiny piece of the Lassa virus, which can double a person over in pain, make their head swell and, in some cases, quickly result in ...

MISSOULA, Mont. — High school students across Montana are finding previously unknown viruses usingMontana Technological University’s new state-of-the-art scanning/transmission electron microscope. The ...

A new, nano-scale look at how the SARS-CoV-2 virus replicates in cells may offer greater precision in drug development, a Stanford University team reports in Nature Communications. Using advanced ...

Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

Current calibration methods rely on artificially constructed DNA structures or specific cellular features, each with significant drawbacks. DNA-based rulers require complex chemical synthesis and only ...
