- 1New microscope captures living cells of Antarctic fish in extreme cold●Researchers engineered a novel microscope capable of operating near 0 degrees Celsius, enabling the first-ever high-reso
Researchers have engineered a microscope that operates near 0 degrees Celsius, allowing the first high-resolution imaging of living cells in Antarctic fish. The observations aim to reveal how these fish survive in frigid waters, with potential implications for cryobiology, cell biology and marine science.

Red and purple sphagnum moss has been photographed under a microscope, showing the stem and crown lit from both above and below. The striking colours and intricate structure of a common wetland plant are drawing attention from plant lovers, gardeners and microscopy fans.
- 3X-ray microscopy reveals flow behaviour in nanoparticle suspensions▼Multiscale transitional flow in anisotropic nanoparticle suspensions revealed by time-resolved X-ray scatter microscopy
Researchers report the use of time-resolved X-ray scatter microscopy to observe multiscale transitional flow in anisotropic nanoparticle suspensions. The technique makes it possible to track how these particle-laden fluids behave across different length and time scales as they shift between flow regimes. The study, published in Nature, offers new experimental insight into the dynamics of complex suspensions, a topic of interest in soft matter physics and materials science.
- 4Scientists Asked to Identify Mystery Algae From Tennessee Pond●Can anyone help me ID these algal samples from a # Tennessee pond? Not Spirogyra # science # biology # microbiology # al
A researcher in Tennessee has asked fellow scientists to help identify algal samples collected from a local pond, noting they are not the common filamentous green alga Spirogyra. The request highlights how microscopy enthusiasts and biologists turn to online communities for species identification when samples do not match familiar taxa.
