Fluorescent probes are key tools for scientists looking at cellular properties or morphology. Use this guide to determine which probe is best for a given situation or experiment.

Harrison York combines microscopy and machine learning to visualize and characterize how endosomes regulate intracellular mechanisms. 

By combining microscopy techniques with genome engineering, scientists revealed the complexities of the presynaptic actin cytoskeleton.

A receptor that recognizes DNA fragments formed during learning is necessary for proper memory formation.

Researchers reveal that cellular secretion removes defective mitochondria when lysosomes are dysfunctional.

Researchers found that actin filaments can behave counter to decades-old actin dynamics dogma, changing how biologists think about cell movement.

A scientific image can conceal even more than it reveals. Scientists can now share their untold behind-the-image stories in our new Science Snapshot column.

Microscopes were inaccessible to most of the world until Manu Prakash and Jim Cybulski put their engineering prowess to the test.

MINFLUX brought record-breaking resolution to fluorescence microscopy in 2016. A new version perfected for protein tracking came out this spring.

Finding an effective antibiotic against an infection can easily take 24 hours. Faster testing could save lives and help doctors avoid broad-spectrum antibiotics, which can foster resistance.

Scientists developed new tools for brain reconstruction and analysis to create and characterize a complete brain wiring map of the fruit fly larva for the first time.

Modification on a high-resolution fluorescent microscopy technique allow researchers to track the precise movements of motor proteins. 

Benedetta Artegiani and Delilah Hendriks formed a joint laboratory group to understand disease mechanisms and treatments through organoid models.
