Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

A newly described technology improves the clarity and speed of using two-photon microscopy to image synapses in the live brain. The brain's ability to learn comes from "plasticity," in which neurons ...

Using machine learning to guide microscopes could reveal greater insights into the brain's connectome and deepen our ...

The world of laser scanning microscopy is quickly evolving, thanks to the advent of fast and compact detector arrays. These arrays replace the typical single-element detector of traditional confocal ...
