A collaborative team from the Rosalind Franklin Institute, the University of Oxford, and Diamond Light Source has developed a breakthrough method that makes it possible to image very small proteins using cryo-electron microscopy ...
Everyone who ever took a photo knows the problem: if you want a detailed image, you need a lot of light. In microscopy, however, too much light is often harmful to the sample—for example, when imaging sensitive biological ...
Ōtākou Whakaihu Waka researchers have hit the right note to cut down the time it takes to brew beer without altering its flavor. They have found playing audible sound (white noise) while making beer can reduce the fermentation ...
A team of Johns Hopkins engineers has developed a new, more powerful method to observe molecular vibrations, an advance that could have far-reaching implications for early disease detection.
As anyone who has tried to hold a conversation in a noisy room knows, it is sometimes easier to rely on hand gestures than to shout over the din. White-throated dippers face a similar challenge along the fast-flowing streams ...
In a new study published in Nature Physics, scientists have achieved the first experimental observation of phonon angular momentum in chiral crystals.
In the world of nanotechnology, seeing clearly isn't easy. It's even harder when you're trying to understand how a material's properties relate to its structure at the nanoscale. Tools like piezoresponse force microscopy ...
Medical imaging methods such as ultrasound and MRI are often affected by background noise, which can introduce blurring and obscure fine anatomical details in the images. For clinicians who depend on medical images, background ...
A group of UBC Okanagan students has helped create technology that could improve how doctors and scientists detect everything from tumors to wildfires.
We've all had a bad night's sleep, with a snoring partner, a crying baby or neighbors having too much fun. Sleep disturbances are common and have unpleasant consequences the day after, including feeling unmotivated and struggling ...
