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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Expansion microscopy (ExM) is an attractive route to nanoscale imaging for labs without conventional super-resolution microscopes. It involves linking fluorescent markers through a gel infused into ...
Unlike other modes of microscopy that employ sophisticated optical equipment to acquire high-resolution images, expansion microscopy enlarges biological specimens physically enabling nanoscale image ...
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 ...
Striking images of mouse endometrium led researchers to a new model of endometrial regeneration, with less gland involvement ...
