To unravel the complexities of biological phenomena, scientists have long relied on microscopy to visualize the intricate details of their specimens, including tissue architecture, cell morphology, ...

Example of super-resolution microscopy: The image shows how the Discrete Molecular Imaging (DMI) technology visualizes densely packed individual targets that are just 5 nanometer apart from each other ...

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’ ...

The resolution of the microscope is limited by the physics of light and the system itself, so the instrument can only detect the sum of these individual contributions—their combined brightness. Like ...

Even those who maintain that super-resolution microscopy is a powerful tool of biological discovery have admitted that it may have a bit of an image problem. For example, in a recent review, several ...
