Record-breaking microscopic QR code battle built to store our future

For those of us who weren't paying attention, over the last few years, scientists around the world have been one-upping each other in a bid to create the smallest QR code that can be reliably read. Now, Austria-based researchers have set the bar real high with a QR code so tiny, you'll need an…

Making the Electron Microscope

In a little over a century, the electron microscope evolved from a tool barely capable of resolving virus particles into one able to capture atomic detail.

Donating old #instruments to labs that can’t afford to buy new sounds like a nice idea, but the practicalities are often difficult (for example with an #ElectronMicroscope a colleague got, not noticing the liquid mercury cap was open and the box upside-down). https://cen.acs.org/business/instrumentation/happens-old-scientific-instruments/102/i18?utm_source=Live+Audience&utm_campaign=c11700db61-nature-briefing-daily-20240625&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b27a691814-c11700db61-50179668
