To Speed Discovery, Infrared Microscopy Goes “Off the Grid”
In the journal Communications Biology, researchers from Caltech, UC Berkeley, and Berkeley Lab’s Synchrotron Infrared Structural Biology Imaging Program reported on a more efficient way to collect “high-dimensional” infrared images—where each pixel contains rich physical and chemical information. With the new method, scans that would’ve taken up to 10 hours to complete can now be done in under Read More …
Focusing in on Aquatic Microbes: Berkeley Lab Scientists Receive Grant for New Microscopy Approach
by Aliyah Kovner A trio of Berkeley Lab scientists has been awarded a grant by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation to develop a unique microscopy technology that can be used to study symbiosis in aquatic microbes – biological relationships that have a large influence on ecosystems and the planet’s climate. The grant is part Read More …
