Innovations in the STORM Method Reveal Vital Clues to Disease Formation
Scientists and clinicians have long believed that visualizing structural changes in the nucleus of cancer cells would unlock vital clues about how the disease first forms. This information could provide the ability to track where and how cancer is progressing to plan its successful treatment. Traditional microscopy methods have fallen short in revealing these details because the microscope’s...
The Evolution of Scientific Cameras Leads to the Advancement of Microscopy
Most people are familiar with standard qualitative cameras and bright high-contrast images, thanks to the prevalence of increasingly powerful smartphone and digital cameras in the marketplace....
Portable Reflectance Confocal Microscopy for Low-Resource Settings
Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is an optical imaging technology that captures reflected light from tissue to visualize the tissue’s cellular morphologic details. The method does not require...
EDITORIAL
Early warning signs
This year’s Heinrich Wieland Prize recognized Harvard University professor Xiaowei Zhuang for her lab’s development of stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy (STORM), a technology that continues to bear fruit in the life sciences. Researchers have been using the superresolution method for more than 15 years, along with other techniques that break the Abbe limit, to improve their...
SHOW PREVIEW
SPIE BiOS to Highlight System Design and Early Diagnostics
As part of SPIE Photonics West 2023, which will take place at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, the BiOS Expo will run the weekend of Jan. 28-29. The exhibition will include dozens of companies showcasing new photonic system components and the latest adaptations for optical technologies in medicine and the life sciences. BiOS Hot Topics sessions will cover image-guided autonomous robotic...

Technique Enables In Vivo Vascular Imaging at Single-Cell Resolution
A two-photon fluorescence imaging method developed by researchers at the University of Hong Kong and the University of California, Berkeley was able to image the flow of individual blood cells at 1000 2D frames and 1,000,000 line-scans per second in the brains of awake mice. Such rapid measurements go beyond the reach of conventional two-photon microscopy methods to enable the study of blood flow...
Nanotech, Deep Learning Combine to Detect Pediatric Tuberculosis
A technique for diagnosing tuberculosis (TB) in children takes advantage of the optical properties of gold nanoparticles to detect the disease. The technique uses an artificial intelligence (AI)...
IDEX Adds Muon Group to Health & Science Technologies Segment
IDEX Corp. has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire micro-precision technology manufacturing company Muon BV (Muon Group) and its subsidiaries. The deal is worth €700 million (~$699.13...
Flow Cytometry Technique Shows Promise for Early Cancer Diagnosis
A digital droplet microfluidic flow cytometry technique could enable earlier recognition of tumor development and progress, by aiding in the detection of multiple microRNAs (miRNAs) in single...
Expansion Microscopy Technique Reveals Hidden Nanostructures
Proteins and other molecules are often tightly packed together inside a living cell. These dense clusters can be difficult to image because the fluorescent labels used to make them visible...
Olympus Sells Scientific Solutions Business to Bain Capital
Olympus is selling its wholly owned subsidiary EVIDENT Co. Ltd. to Bain Capital. The divestment, which is reportedly worth over $3 billion, will see all shares of EVIDENT transferred to Bain Capital...
Imaging Method Noninvasively Measures Placental Health
An optical technique for measuring placental blood flow and oxygenation in real time provides information about placental hemodynamics that could aid in the early detection of adverse pregnancy...
SPIE Elects de Groot into its Presidential Chain
Peter de Groot, chief scientist at Zygo Corp., was elected to serve as the 2023 vice president of SPIE. The election brings de Groot into the SPIE presidential chain. He will serve as president-elect...

3 QUESTIONS
3 Questions with Kevin Zhou
BioPhotonics spoke with Kevin Zhou, a postdoctoral fellow in the Biomedical Engineering Department at Duke University, who received the Barry Goldwater Scholarship, the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship, and the Schmidt Science Fellowship. Zhou and his colleagues recently published a paper about a new computational 3D microscopy method — called 3D optical coherence...
BIOPINION
Cosmetic clinical trials must be planned with diversity as a priority
Medical research has a long, unfortunate track record of excluding ethnic and racial minority groups from clinical trials, a phenomenon that introduces remarkable uncertainty to the outcomes of taking medications or receiving laser-based medical treatments in these populations. Similarly, chronic medical conditions and adverse reactions to treatment that disproportionately affect minority groups,...

Float like a jellyfish, sting like a jellyfish
How animals survive in the wild and defend themselves from natural predators is one of the most fascinating and essential mechanisms that researchers can study. Because animals cannot rely on the same mental strategies that humans can to extract themselves from dangerous situations, the animals often need to take advantage of innate physical capabilities. Photonics, in conjunction with other...
