Electron microscopy uses a beam of electrons to illuminate a sample and achieve much higher spatial resolution than light microscopy. Transmission electron microscopy generates an image of the ...
This scanning electron microscope image shows SARS-CoV-2 (yellow)—also known as 2019-nCoV, the virus that causes COVID-19—isolated from a patient in the U.S., emerging from the surface of ...
Large-scale microscopy combined with tissue clearing and expansion enables nanoscale imaging of centimeter scale specimens.
Scanning probe microscopy images a sample by scanning a physical probe just above the surface. A variety of different probes and detection modalities can be used to generate either a topological ...
In the shadows of Python Cave, Uganda, a leopard leaps from a guano mound—formed by bat excrement—and sinks its teeth into a ...

Kenya confirms three new Mpox cases in Busia; Health Ministry warns of a high risk of importing Marburg and Ebola viruses from neighboring Tanzania and Sudan.
The electron microscope reveals that these infectious particles possess three principal types of symmetry. Each species of virus is ingeniously assembled from just a few kinds of building block ...
In addition to SARS-CoV-2, other emerging and re-emerging viruses with epidemic potential such as Ebola virus (EBOV), Zika virus (ZIKV), SARS-CoV, Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus ...
