Electron microscopes, too, can see DNA in cells, and DNA sequencers can determine the A’s, T’s, C’s, ... DNA microscope image of the same cells, showing genetic material.

Cryo-ET uses electron microscopes to study flash-frozen samples, like cells. Combining the two techniques immediately raised problems the researchers needed to overcome.

Traditional electron microscopes use a particle beam of electrons, instead of light, to image specimens, which offers extremely high resolution – up to 0.2 to 10 nanometers – that's 10 to ...

Peering inside cells has been an integral part of biology ever since the 17th century, when cells were discovered under a microscope. But even with advances in light and electron microscopy ...
