A technique that supersizes cells to reveal minute details has gone big — really big. Using a polymer similar to those used in nappies to make them super-absorbent, scientists have expanded the volume ...

Researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have shown for the first time that expensive aberration-corrected microscopes are no longer required to achieve record-breaking ...

With a new microscope that's as light as a penny, researchers can now observe broad swaths of the brain in action as mice move about and interact with their environments. As a mouse explores its ...
