Forever pushing the boundaries, cell biologists are shifting focus from the micro- towards the nano- and even sub-nano level. To do so means having to find ever more creative ways of using not just biology, but also elements of physics, materials science and engineering. Biophysicists, nanotechnologists, nanofabricators and electrical engineers are working side by side to probe further into the cell. 详细>
