Scientists can peer into cells to get a limited view of their activity using microscopes and other tools. However, cells and ...

Researchers have developed a way to 3D print custom micrometer-sized structures directly into the interior of living cells.

Custom polymer structures can now be 3D printed inside living cells using laser-based fabrication, opening paths to intracellular sensors, cell tracking tags, and embedded microlasers.

Metabolism, far from being just a housekeeping function, underlies all changes in cell size and function ...

Among modern cancer therapies, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) are among the most successful treatment methods. These ...

Identifying and delineating cell structures in microscopy images is crucial for understanding the complex processes of life. This task is called “segmentation” and it enables a range of applications, ...

Scientists have created a new technique that can assess how mutations in the genome influence the packaging of DNA in cells. The genome is massive, and has to be carefully wrapped around proteins so ...

A classical way to image nanoscale structures in cells is with high-powered, expensive super-resolution microscopes. As an alternative, MIT researchers have developed a way to expand tissue before ...

Researchers devised a way to expand tissue 20-fold in a single step. Their simple, inexpensive method could pave the way for nearly any biology lab to perform nanoscale imaging. A classical way to ...
