Protein microarrays are coming of age, and the development of specialized technologies is extending their high-throughput capabilities. Michael Eisenstein reports.
Light microscopy is undergoing a renaissance, with a huge range of tools and techniques for gathering biological data with unprecedented speed and resolution. Michael Eisenstein takes a closer look.
Doubt is often cast on the reliability of DNA microarrays, but resources are becoming available to help researchers overcome many of the problems inherent in this technology. Michael Eisenstein reports.
A key element of performing good cell-biology experiments is starting with exactly the right cells. Michael Eisenstein takes a look at the technologies that can make this possible.
Understanding the regulation of gene expression in stem cells and neurons, and finding ways to manipulate it, are important challenges. Laura Bonetta searches out the tools for the job.
