TEMI mapping of lipid distribution across cerebellar layers. This image shows lipid species specifically enriched in three distinctive layers of the cerebellum: molecular layer, white matter layer and ...

In biology, seeing can lead to understanding, and researchers in Professor Edward Boyden's lab at the McGovern Institute for ...

4D printed hydrogel expanders use controlled buckling and low pressure to generate new soft tissue while preserving viability and activating early remodeling pathways for personalized reconstruction. ...

For biologists, seeing is believing. But sometimes biologists have a hard time seeing. One particularly vexing challenge is seeing all the molecules in an intact tissue sample, down to the level of ...
