TB tests use phlegm — not the easiest thing to get or work with. It takes time for results. And there can be false negatives ...

A scientific team led in part by one of the pioneers at the Montreal Clinical Research Institute (IRCM) has recently ...

In a new study, scientists have explored key unanswered questions about the biology of Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV-1), a virus in the same order as the Ebola, measles, and rabies viruses. Human ...

An international team of researchers built a highly sensitive quantum microscope and used it to directly observe, for the first time at room temperature, how electrons subtly interact with each other ...

Moiré materials — atomically thin, two-dimensional layered structures such as graphene — have emerged as one of the most exciting frontiers in condensed matter physics. By stacking these atomic layers ...

Perhaps they can take a peek into the infinitesimal world outside with Bubo, a 2-in-1 digital microscope currently on Kickstarter. Designed for ease of use by curious novices and students alike, Bubo ...

Artificial Intelligence Hackers used AI to steal hundreds of millions of Mexican government and private citizen records in one of the largest cybersecurity breaches ever Planet Earth Super El Niño ...

For those of us who weren't paying attention, over the last few years, scientists around the world have been one-upping each other in a bid to create the smallest QR code that can be reliably read.

Just how small can a QR code be? Small enough that it can only be recognized with an electron microscope. A research team at TU Wien, working together with the data storage technology company Cerabyte ...

Physically magnifying objects using a key moisture-absorbing ingredient in diapers has opened an unprecedented view of the microbial world. When you slip a slide under a microscope, a system of glass ...

Beam-sensitive zeolites are difficult to study at high resolution because traditional electron microscopy often damages or destroys their delicate crystal structures before meaningful data can be ...

With a so-called cryo plasma-FIB (Plasma Focused Ion Beam) scanning electron microscope with nanomanipulator, Goethe University in Frankfurt (Germany) is expanding its research infrastructure with a ...
