Andrew T. Lombardo, PhD, assistant professor of biochemistry, has received a $1.9 million National Institutes of Health grant to study cell polarity signaling.

Its components can be adapted to any commercialized or home-built dual-beam OT setup equipped with a confocal scanning microscope, which will facilitate single-molecule force–fluorescence spectroscopy ...

Abstract: We have experimentally demonstrated a fiberoptic confocal microscope using a 1.55-mum laser source. A compact and efficient Er-doped fiber laser source and conventional single-mode fiber ...

Conventional MRI scans, familiar to us from hospitals, have a resolution of around one-tenth of a millimeter, which allows them to image incredibly ...

Line-scan illumination extends the principle of confocal microscopy. (11) As the name suggests, the sample is illuminated along a line rather than a single point, while a slit instead of a pinhole is ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been emerging as ... recent advances in AFM study of living mammalian cells at the single-molecule and single-cell levels. Besides nanoscale imaging of cell ...

The confocal microscopes are available use by all members of the School after attending a training session. However, to cover the costs of the service contracts on these instruments, there is an ...

Abstract: Optical microscopy of single molecules is widely applied in studying dynamic processes with simultaneously high spatial and temporal resolutions under ambient conditions, such as cell ...
