The adage 'Seeing is believing' was front of mind for Dr. Chih-Wei Logan Hsu and Dr. Joshua D. Wythe at Baylor College of Medicine as they and their colleagues developed an innovative technology ...

Their new method, published in the journal eLife, was developed at the Optical Imaging and Vital Microscopy Core (OiVM) at Baylor. Tissue clearing and whole organ imaging have revolutionized biology, ...

The first method to combine tissue clearing and proteomics allows researchers to peer into tissues to find early markers of disease. By making tissues almost transparent, researchers can then reach in ...

A new tissue-clearing method simplifies and speeds up the process to render tissue optically transparent, enabling 3D imaging of entire, intact tissues or organs. The adage 'Seeing is believing' was ...

Anil Oza is a general assignment reporter at STAT focused on the NIH and health equity. You can reach him on Signal at aniloza.16. When a dye called tartrazine is added to food, it creates a bright ...

It is now possible to obtain three-dimensional, high-resolution images of enzyme activity in tissue samples or whole organs—thanks to probe molecules that anchor fluorescent dyes within tissue as they ...

Researchers create a biomimetic model to study wound healing in burn and laceration wounds. The team designed an in vitro model system made of fibroblasts embedded in a collagen hydrogel. Wounds were ...

The researchers demonstrated the utility of their technique on a slice of a mouse brain, 200 microns (0.2 millimeters) in thickness. First, they made their tissue sample see-through using a tweaked ...
