The properties of optical stimuli need to be conveyed from the eye to the brain. To do this efficiently, the relevant information is extracted by pre-processing in the eye. Using a novel microscopy ...

To diagnose diseases in people living in remote locations, clinicians have traditionally preferred a low-tech approach because battery-powered electronic devices can be too delicate and fussy for ...

The majority of surgeons use magnifying loupes or their naked eye when performing scleral buckling surgery. Complications arising from scleral perforation can, however, compromise the anatomic and ...

HOUSTON - (Feb. 12, 2020) - You don't need a big laser to make laser-induced graphene (LIG). Scientists at Rice University, the University of Tennessee, Knoxville (UT Knoxville) and Oak Ridge National ...

System schematic for automatic detection of sister chromatid exchanges. Machine learning techniques have been used to develop a set of algorithms that can identify and count SCEs in microscopy images.

Optical microscopy is a technique employed to closely view a sample through the magnification of a lens with visible light. This is the traditional form of microscopy, which was first invented before ...

Microscopes are of three basic types: optical, electron (or ion), and scanning probe. The modern optical or light microscope was developed in the mid-19th century. Optical microscopes use transparent ...

As part of an expansion of the Eyring Science Center, BYU is installing two transmission electron microscopes. The new microscopes, also known as TEMs, are high-powered tools capable of capturing 3D ...

Despite having extensive research about living and non-living things, mankind is still barely touching the surface of science, and there are many questions still left unanswered. In order to answer ...
