Light-sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) involves using thin planar illumination as a means of limiting the power of light directed at a sample of fragile biological tissues. This approach typically ...

The Spanish National Cancer Research Centre (CNIO) and the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) are part of the international consortium NanoBright, which has developed this new tool. The probe ...

In between its main mission, the Parker Solar Probe just made a novel contribution to Venusian science. New images from the sun-focused mission, captured during a close flyby of Venus, show the planet ...

Voyager 1, NASA’s deep-space probe, could soon become the first spacecraft to reach a historic milestone. In November 2026, the probe will be one light-day from Earth. Launched in 1977, Voyager 1 is ...

A novel device that could use light to harmlessly and almost instantly probe for early signs of cancer has been developed by researchers at Duke's Pratt School of Engineering. The device would allow ...

Fluorescent proteins have revolutionized science, enabling researchers to tag and visualize individual molecules in living cells, tissues, and animals. Using these tools, researchers have watched ...

Microbes carried by laser-propelled sails could serve as interstellar probes that can build communications stations to phone home from Alpha Centauri, suggests a scientist known for wanting to ...

Monitoring molecular changes in the brain caused by cancer and other neurological pathologies in a non-invasive way is one of the major challenges in biomedical research. A new experimental technique ...
