Physicists in Leiden have built a microscope that can measure no fewer than four key properties of a material in a single scan, all with nanoscale precision. The instrument can even examine complete ...

The DeepInMiniMicroscope developed by UC Davis electrical engineering professor Weijian Yang combines optical technology and machine learning to create a device that can take high-resolution ...

Scientists have developed a faster method for measuring the elasticity of airway walls, a property that can reveal important information about respiratory health. The technique, reported in the ...

Vaginal health is tightly linked to the balance of bacteria in the microbiome, especially certain species of Lactobacillus. When this balance is disturbed-a condition known as dysbiosis-it can lead to ...

Probiotics aren’t universally gut-friendly, a study in mice suggests. At least one type of usually beneficial gut bacteria may invite an unwanted guest. Both Lactobacillus microbes were chosen for the ...

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. In recent times, there have been leaps and bounds with the kind of microscopes available to us, such as AI-powered microscopes that can help ...

The intricate, hidden processes that sustain coral life are being revealed through a new microscope developed by scientists at UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The diver-operated ...

A team was able to edit the DNA of Lactobacillus strains directly without a template from other organisms. This technique is indistinguishable from natural variation and enabled the researchers to ...

Science is one of the most fruitful sources of new terminology. There’s nothing like a surfeit of terms like “mitochondrial synthesis” and “quantum fluctuations” to make your writing sound ...

"The successful operation of ELVIS in the demanding conditions of space not only paves the way for its use in off-Earth environments but also holds implications for enhancing biomedical and ...

In context: 3D printing is slowly becoming mainstream, having moved beyond functional prototyping, rapid tooling, trinkets, and toys. We have already seen people use 3D printers to create fashion ...
