New Microscope Peers at Subcellular Gears in Action Thanks to a new microscope that captures 3-D images of subcellular activity in real time, scientists can trace the pathways of nerve cells that form synapses in the brain or follow progress of proteins that clump together to cause disease, among other imaging feats once thought impossible. The new microscope was designed by a team that includes one of this year’s Nobel Prize winners in Chemistry, Eric Betzig. Read more about this research from the 24 October issue of Science here.
