Amanda Heidt is a freelance writer and editor in Moab, Utah. Almost as soon as there were super-resolution microscopes, scientists pointed them towards molecular motors called kinesins.

After decades of attempts, scientists have developed a compact version of a powerful microscope — opening the door to wider use of the devices, which typically occupy an entire building.

It is the most powerful of its type in the world. Seven new super-microscopes and a specially designed building will give scientists at DTU unique opportunities to design new materials.

A new microscope developed by the TEAM Project (Transmission Electron Aberration-corrected Microscope), supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, has recorded the highest-resolution images ever ...

Even when cancer surgery goes well, it’s far from guaranteed that all the cancer has been removed. The excised tumor is sent to a pathology lab, which analyzes it under a microscope to estimate how ...

McMaster University in Hamilton is the first postsecondary institution in the world to get a powerful new electron microscope that will allow Canadian researchers to see atoms in far sharper ...

The science of small just got a lot bigger at Berkeley Lab with the arrival of the world’s most powerful microscope. The new $27 million microscope has a resolution of half of an angstrom ...

With imaging power up to 175x, this scope is more than just a tool -- it's an instrument. The author uses good old fashioned wood for the base, but at least the parts list doesn't require a trip ...
