New single-molecule microscopy technique lets researchers see lipid membranes in unique detail

Lauren Robertson | | Quick Read

Using traditional techniques, such as MS, it’s difficult for scientists to image cell membranes without destroying them in the process. Now, researchers have developed a new system – single-molecule orientation localization microscopy (SMOLM) – that is not only nondestructive, but provides a higher-resolution view of lipid membranes than previously possible (1).

About the Author

Lauren Robertson

By the time I finished my degree in Microbiology I had come to one conclusion – I did not want to work in a lab. Instead, I decided to move to the south of Spain to teach English. After two brilliant years, I realized that I missed science, and what I really enjoyed was communicating scientific ideas – whether that be to four-year-olds or mature professionals. On returning to England I landed a role in science writing and found it combined my passions perfectly. Now at Texere, I get to hone these skills every day by writing about the latest research in an exciting, creative way.
