A team at Scripps Research has created a microchip that can rapidly reveal how a person's antibodies respond to viruses using only a drop of blood. This game-changing technology, called mEM, condenses ...

As part of a person's first line of defense against viruses and other microbes that cause illness and disease, a whole network of proteins and other molecules detect and respond to intruders, which ...

Fluorescence time-lapse microscopy is a powerful technique for observing the spatial-temporal behavior of viruses. To quantitatively analyze the exhibited dynamical relationships, tracking of viruses ...

As summer kicks into full gear and people are spending more time outside, there's one thing on many people's minds—ticks.

A new scanning technique delivers exquisitely detailed images—and could revolutionize the study of human anatomy.

We describe in detail an atom-by-atom exchange manipulation technique using a scanning tunneling microscope probe. As-deposited Mn adatoms (Mnad) are exchanged one-by-one with surface In atoms (Insu) ...

Quantum tunnelling — when a particle skips through a barrier that classical physics would forbid — happens faster when objects have less energy, find physicists who worked out a way to probe photons ...

This Review is focused on the new surface structures enabled particularly by one of the new tools: high-pressure scanning tunneling microscopy. We will cover several important surfaces that have been ...

In this paper we discuss the application of a broadband Near-Field Scanning Microwave Microscope (SMM) to the imaging of biological samples, in particular mouse myotubes C2C12 and rabbit sarcomeres, ...
