In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* pre-print server, researchers illustrated the cryo-electron microscopic (cryo-EM) structure of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) ...

Cryo-electron microscopy by University of Alabama at Birmingham researchers has exposed the structure of a bacterial virus with unprecedented detail. This is the first structure of a virus able to ...

A new way of imaging frozen biological samples using electron microscopy is providing new glimpses into the nanoscopic world of cells. Images reveal bent in-vitro tubulin microtubules next to and in a ...

An international team led by researchers from the University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG), Germany, has used advanced ...

With the inventions of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in 1931 and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) shortly after in 1937, scientists gained an unprecedented ultrastructural view of the ...

Research led by scientists at Washington State University has revealed insights on how plants form a microscopic landscape of proteins crucial to photosynthesis, the basis of Earth's food and energy ...

Scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory made a big leap in their research into all things small. Within the past few months, scientists there began using what they say is the world’s most ...

The development of new forms of transmission electron microscopes that combine the features of both transmission electron microscopes and scanning electron microscopes will fuel the growth of the ...

Led by Arthur Blackburn, co-director of UVic's Advanced Microscopy Facility, the team developed a novel imaging technique that allowed them to achieve sub-Ångström resolution using a compact, ...

A giant inflatable E. coli has appeared in central Brno, highlighting the city’s electron microscopy tradition and the ...
