Bathylepeta wadatsumi was inspired by an anime character and was discovered with the DSV Shinkai 6500, a crewed submersible, to observe specimens in their natural habitat.

In a first-of-its-kind experiment tracing evolution across 25 generations, scientists have discovered that marine ...

Radiation damage remains the principal limitation in achieving higher resolution in cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), despite advances in cryoprotection and low-dose imaging. Researchers have ...

Learn more about the tiny crystalline dermal denticles, tooth-like scales that allow the blue shark to change colors.

Microbes have been discovered alive inside 2-billion-year-old rock, offering a rare window into Earth’s deep past. Found in the Bushveld Igneous Complex (BIC) of South Africa, these microscopic ...

Tokyo Electron Ltd. is on course to widen its lead against Chinese chip tool makers despite the billions of dollars Beijing is mobilizing to catch up, according to the Japanese company’s chief.

It’s a problem that few of us will ever face, but if you ever have to calibrate your scanning electron microscope, you’ll need a resolution target with a high contrast under an electron beam ...

Electron microscopes are some of the most powerful tools in science, allowing us to capture images at a scale so tiny that we can observe individual atoms! Unlike traditional light microscopes ...

Barbara Westrem of Sequim paints her impressions of microscopic marine creatures during an adult drawing class on Wednesday at Feiro Marine Life Center in Port Angeles. The class, “Through the Looking ...

New electron microscopy technique enables precise atomic number mapping, revealing nanoscale hydrogen storage and defect dynamics in palladium.

Mysterious marine creature captured on deep-sea camera Marine scientists have captured images of a mysterious tentacled creature that lives more than 3 miles below the ocean surface.

“It finally enables light microscopy to enter the contested arena of brain-imaging methods for connectomics,” which has, so far, been dominated by competing electron microscopy approaches.
