How GFP-grabbing nanobodies enable instant tracking of protein dynamics in live cells.

Tagging proteins with GFP-grabbing nanobodies enables instant tracking of the proteins’ dynamics in live cells.

This year’s list of winners celebrates both large leaps and small (but important) steps in life science technology.

One of the pioneers in developing fluorescent proteins for biological studies was 64 years old.

A versatile modular strategy for detecting small molecules in eukaryotes

Researchers build a microfluidics system to create proteins without living cells.

Whole-animal, light-based imaging of infected small mammals

Light microscopy techniques that spotlight neural connections in the brain

The first researcher to clone the gene for green fluorescent protein, but who was passed over for the 2008 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, is back in academic science.
