It’s relatively easy to understand how optical microscopes work at low magnifications: one lens magnifies an image, the next magnifies the already-magnified image, and so on until it reaches the eye ...

Investigating how the central nervous system stimulant methylamphetamine (METH) disrupts neuronal cell membranes is crucial, as lack of knowledge of the molecular-level disruptions-such as complex ...

This valuable study reports the existence of specific spike-timing dependent synaptic plasticity processes at two excitatory synapses of the dentate gyrus granule cells. These synapses link the ...

To carry out their study, the team developed an orientation-independent-differential interference contrast (OI-DIC) microscopy system combined with a confocal laser scanning microscope capable of ...

(A) Histone staining images and OI-DIC density imaging of human living cells in the interphase (the phase between cell divisions, left) and mitotic phase (right). The bottom two rows are OI-DIC ...

Our understanding of the cellular forces for nuclear positioning in cells is limited, with discrepancies existing between theoretical and empirical estimates and between species. In this study, we ...

There is an urgent need for new antifungal drugs to treat invasive fungal diseases. Unfortunately, the echinocandin drugs that are fungicidal against other important fungal pathogens are ineffective ...

(CNN) — A federal judge will consider how to proceed with special counsel Jack Smith’s election interference case against Donald Trump during a hearing later this month, according to a brief order ...
