Tears seem simple, but the tiny glands that produce them are among the least understood organs in the human body. By growing ...

Many biological processes are regulated by electricity-from nerve impulses to heartbeats to the movement of molecules in and ...

Unlike our organs, cell organelles such as mitochondria are not fixed in place, but when, where, how, and why organelles move ...

Scientists have discovered a shocking new way viruses can spread — and it’s faster and deadlier than ever. Meet “Migrions,” a ...

This paper presents an important advance in genetically encoded voltage imaging of the developing zebrafish spinal cord in vivo, capturing voltage dynamics in neuronal populations, single cells, and ...

The fund seeks to enable researchers to make leaps rather than incremental advances in the natural sciences and engineering.

Experts are increasingly turning to machine learning to predict antibiotic resistance. The results should be treated with ...

A mosquito proboscis repurposed as a 3-D printing nozzle can print filaments around 20 micrometers wide, half the width of a ...

The death toll and economic damage associated with flu highlight its role as one of the most harmful viruses in history.

A new microscopy technique allows scientists to see single-atom-thick boron nitride by making it glow under infrared light.

Abstract: We proposed a DHM system with improved spatial resolution compared with that of the polarized camera-based DHM system by employing a liquid crystal phase modulator (LCPM). The LCPM-based ...
