This transmission electron microscope image shows SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, isolated from a patient in the U.S. Virus particles are shown emerging from the surface of cells cultured ...

Beckman researchers paired microscopy with artificial intelligence to develop a COVID-19 test that’s fast, accurate, and cost-effective. All we need to do is say “ahh.” Many of us have encountered or ...

A multi-institutional team led by University of Washington scientists have engineered a new vaccine platform combining mRNA ...

Learn how a cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) system leveraging advanced imaging, sample handling, and software technologies assisted in COVID-19 vaccine development. How has cryogenic electron ...

Researchers have optimized a special X-ray process -- known as soft X-ray tomography -- to deliver high-resolution three-dimensional images of entire cells and their molecular structure in just a few ...

SEM stands for scanning electron microscope. The SEM is a microscope that uses electrons instead of light to form an image. Since their development in the early 1950's, scanning electron microscopes ...

Advances in imaging technology continue to benefit society in disparate ways. For example, cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) played a fundamental role in the development of the COVID-19 vaccine.
