Researchers from The University of Osaka develop time-deterministic cryo-optical microscopy, which freezes cells with millisecond precision, enabling accurate, high-resolution visualization of transient moments during dynamic cellular processes.
Scientists have developed a groundbreaking cryo-optical microscopy technique that freezes living cells mid-action, capturing ultra-detailed snapshots of fast biological processes. By rapidly immobilizing cells at precise moments, researchers can overcome the limitations of traditional live-cell imaging and gain sharper insights into fleeting events like calcium ion waves in heart cells.
