By combining atomic force microscopy (AFM) with a Hadamard productbased image reconstruction algorithm, scientists ...

Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

The Park FX40 Automatic Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) System is capable of high spatial resolution surface mapping and is equipped with a True Non-Contact TM mode capable of nanoscale surface analysis ...

Every winter, as the air sharpens and scarves return to shoulders, an old visitor also makes a reappearance: the flu. It announces itself with fever, aching limbs, and the familiar drip of a runny ...

How flu viruses enter cells has been directly observed thanks to a new microscopy technique with the potential to revolutionize research on membrane biology, virus–host interactions and drug discovery ...

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 ...
