Scientists at the University of Göttingen have deciphered the biogenesis of an enzyme complex whose role is to ensure that the ends of chromosomes are not shortened during the cell division process and that the genetic material is fully maintained. To be fully functional, telomerase RNA has to be shuttled in and out of the …

William Hughes works at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research, Sydney (Australia). In his Lab Head position he is interested in the causes of diabetes particularly looking at changes in exocytic behavior of pancreatic beta cells as well as fat and muscle cells.TIRF microscopy is predestined for researchers looking at cellular processes near the cytoplasmic …
For instance, to achieve the optimum sectioning results of biological embedded samples, the surrounding embedding material has to be entirely removed. Thus, only the sample is present in the block-face and a “homogeneous” material can be sectioned. Especially when sectioning with a glass knife, the embedding material would influence the section results due to the …
In his book, Spalteholz used the term “das Durchsichtigmachen” – a strange word, even for Germans. It is more specific than “clearing” as it literally means “pellucidation” i.e “make transparent” – of course without destroying the spatial structure. To achieve this goal by an entirely different approach, the group of Karl Deisseroth set out to …
Timo Zimmermann is head of the advanced light microscopy unit in the center for genomic regulation in Barcelona that offers access to the whole range of high and light microscopy equipment to other researchers. The first super-resolution image he saw was an eye opener for him: “It was not just structures that got smaller. I …
For certain applications, such as the production and maintenance of automobiles, aircraft, or power plants, quality control and reliability assurance, as well as safety and health inspection, accurate and reliable image data with precise calibration are very important. Digital microscopes, i.e. microscopes with no eyepieces and a digital camera detector, are appealing for a wide …
