Searches for dark matter particles have come up empty so far, driving theorists to get more creative with their ideas.

Human missions to Mars are edging closer to reality, but the physics of deep space is not cooperating. Outside Earth’s magnetic cocoon, astronauts would be bombarded by high‑energy particles that can ...

Every living thing on Earth appears to carry a hidden shimmer, a vanishingly faint light that is woven into the chemistry of life itself. That glow is so weak that our eyes will never see it unaided, ...

Both for research and medical purposes, researchers have spent decades pushing the limits of microscopy to produce ever deeper and sharper images of brain activity, not only in the cortex but also in ...

Existing super-resolution techniques still face considerable challenges in complex deep tissue environments. For example, Stimulated Emission Depletion (STED) microscopy relies on a doughnut-shaped ...

Biomedical and genetic engineers at Duke University and the Albert Einstein College of Medicine have developed a technique that naturally increases the presence of a light-sensitive molecule ...

Our bodies are constantly breaking down. Over time, their built-in repair mechanisms also fail. Knee cartilage grinds away. Hip joints no longer support weight. Treatments for breast cancer and other ...

Imagine that doctors could precisely print miniature capsules capable of delivering cells needed for tissue repair exactly where they are needed inside a beating heart. A team of scientists led by ...

Researchers headed by a team at the California Institute of Technology developed an ultrasound-guided 3D printing technique that could make it possible to fabricate medical implants in vivo and ...

This figure shows how the STAIG framework can successfully identify spatial domains by integrating image processing and contrastive learning to analyze spatial transcriptomics data effectively.

Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a new dye that can strongly absorb second near-IR radiation and transform it to heat. Starting with a dye from the bile pigment family, ...

Researchers developed a non-invasive imaging technique that enables laser light to penetrate deeper into living tissue, capturing sharper images of cells. This could help clinical biologists study ...
