I use several of the company's products, from capturing on their storage cards, to…

This stunning image may look like a particularly lively Jackson Pollock painting, but it’s actually an example of a new cell imaging technique. The subject? A human retina.In fluorescence microscopy, tissue is imaged using fluorescent dyes that stain specific proteins. But this technique can only be done with three to five different dyes at once, limiting the detail that can be captured in a single image.To expand the detail 10 times over, the researchers on the new study took advantage of a new technique called iterative…

A team of researchers at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider have measured the mass of the W boson and found it to be in line with the Standard Model of particle physics, the overarching theory that describes the four fundamental forces and the characteristics of the smallest units of matter.What Is Carbon Capture? With Gizmodo’s Molly Taft | TechmodoThe team’s finding counters a precise measurement taken last year by a collaboration of hundreds of scientists atthe CDF Collaboration, who were happily surprised to find that the…

Deck13 has announced that its upcoming action role-playing game (ARPG) Atlas Fallen has been delayed, moving its release date from May to August 2023.
