A new type of microscope lets scientists observe life unfolding inside cells
A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.
Neuroblastoma cancer cells before (left) and after (right) chemotherapy. The black threads are the cell's internal scaffolding, which breaks apart during treatment. This damage should kill the cell, ...
New NE-AFM method measures nuclear stiffness in living cells. It shows cancer nuclei change softness with chromatin and environment, aiding diagnosis and treatment. By employing a technique called ...
