Both images show individual red blood cells. The one on the right, produced by STED, more clearly shows the Piezo1 proteins (in green), which are a mechanical calcium channel and play a crucial role ...

Stimulated Emission Depletion (STED) microscopy is a super-resolution imaging technique that overcomes the diffraction limit of conventional optical microscopy. It enables the visualization of ...

In its August 2020 funding cycle, the Cancer Prevention & Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT) awarded a $2.8 million Core Facility Support grant to Ulrich Bickel, M.D., professor and associate dean of ...

Stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy is one of the family of super-resolution techniques developed to allow imaging beyond the normal diffraction limit of optical microscopy. The principle ...

A decade ago, the Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to a trio of researchers for the development of super-resolved fluorescence microscopy. The announcement at the time stated that the researchers’ ...

Confocal microscopy is a specialized fluorescence imaging technique that scientists use to acquire images at greater resolution than conventional microscopy. 1 In addition to scanning the lateral x ...
