Our brain is a complex organ. Billions of nerve cells are wired in an intricate network, constantly processing signals, enabling us to recall memories or to move our bodies. Making sense of this ...

Until today, skin, brain, and all tissues of the human body were difficult to observe in detail with an optical microscope, since the contrast in the image was hindered by the high density of their ...

Physics Colloquium Date: Tuesday, March 17, 2026 Time: 4 – 5 p.m. Location: Olsen Hall 503 Seemantini Nadkarni, Associate Professor of Dermatology at Wellman Center for Photomedicine, Massachusetts ...

There is a growing demand for non-invasive insights into the complex three-dimensional subcellular dynamics within living tissues on the frontier of biological research. To achieve simultaneous ...

This flexibility enables the fabrication of composite structures that best replicate the physiological conditions that surround the tissue, such as mechanical properties and topographical cues. 10 Due ...

Unlike other modes of microscopy that employ sophisticated optical equipment to acquire high-resolution images, expansion microscopy enlarges biological specimens physically enabling nanoscale image ...

Striking images of mouse endometrium led researchers to a new model of endometrial regeneration, with less gland involvement ...

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 ...
