New Microscope Captures 3-D Cellular Action in Real Time

A new microscope that can capture 3-D images in real time may lead to a better understanding of the inner workings of life.   For more than a century, scientists thought they had reached the limit of what they could see under an optical microscope. They were wrong. The 2014 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded for work that lets researchers observe a single molecule - 100 times smaller than what can be seen with a regular microscope.   Eric Betzig was among the scientists...
