Quantitative phase imaging (QPI) is a label-free, wide-field microscopy approach with
significant opportunities for biomedical applications. QPI uses the natural phase shift of light …

Evidence is now mounting that liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) underlies the formation
of membraneless compartments in cells. This realization has motivated major efforts to …

Ongoing developments in science and technology require temperature measurements at
increasingly higher spatial resolutions. Nanocrystals with temperature-sensitive …

An in-line holographic microscope is an optical microscope outfitted with a coherent light
source, such as a laser. Light scattered by the specimen interferes with the transmitted …

Fluorescence microscopy has become a critical tool for researchers to understand biological
processes at the cellular level. Micrographs from fixed and live-cell imaging procedures …

Cell refractive index (RI) is an intrinsic optical parameter that governs the propagation of
light (ie, scattering and absorption) in the cell matrix. The RI of cell is sensitively correlated …

Cells alter the path of light, a fact that leads to well‐known aberrations in single cell or tissue
imaging. Optical diffraction tomography (ODT) measures the biophysical property that …

Currently, cellular action potentials are detected using either electrical recordings or
exogenous fluorescent probes that sense the calcium concentration or transmembrane …

Dendritic cells (DCs) patrol the organism at an immature stage to detect the presence of
pathogens. Once activated, these mature DCs reach the lymph nodes to activate antigen …

The commentary by BD Hobson and E. Herzog 1 has raised major criticism about our
approach to isolating synaptosomes. We believe that the two authors have misunderstood …
