Mitochondria are key determinants of cellular health. However, the functional role of
mitochondria varies from cell to cell depending on the relative demands for energy …

Mitochondria are renowned for their central bioenergetic role in eukaryotic cells, where they
act as powerhouses to generate adenosine triphosphate from oxidation of nutrients. At the …

Despite a steady decline in fossil resources in past few decades, demand for petroleum-
based chemicals and polymers has increased sharply. As the dead end of the petroleum …

Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles. Frequent cycles of fusion and fission adapt the
morphology of the mitochondrial compartment to the metabolic needs of the cell …

For centuries, cell biology has been based on light microscopy and at the same time been
limited by its optical resolution. However, several new technologies have been developed …

Ever since the inception of light microscopy, the laws of physics have seemingly thwarted
every attempt to visualize the processes of life at its most fundamental, sub-cellular, level …

Multiphoton microscopy (MPM) has found a niche in the world of biological imaging as the
best noninvasive means of fluorescence microscopy in tissue explants and living animals …

Biological structures span many orders of magnitude in size, but far-field visible light
microscopy suffers from limited resolution. A new method for fluorescence imaging has been …

Physical Biology of the Cell is a textbook for a first course in physical biology or biophysics
for undergraduate or graduate students. It maps the huge and complex landscape of cell …
