Using a new imaging technique called cryo-electron microscopy—or cryo-EM—the researchers discovered never-before-seen details of the virus that causes cervical, anal and throat cancers. The first-ever ...

A 2014 study published in Oncology Letters states that the initial identification of HPV occurred in 1949 when Strauss employed electron microscopy to analyse wart tissue samples. Physical ...

Using cryo-electron microscopy, cryo-electron tomography and computational modeling, Gong, Reynolds et al. uncover the principles of how the structural plasticity of fascin allows it to build and ...

A new scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) technique that modulates the electron beam in response to the scattering rate allows images to be formed with the fewest electrons possible. The ...

W ith 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 ...

Cryo-electron microscopy has exposed the structure of a bacterial virus with unprecedented detail. This is the first structure of a virus able to infect Staphylococcus epidermidis, and high ...
