my best birthday present ever. Should have moved the microscope to a slightly better position but its not looking too shabby
Attempting some macro shot before next Tuesday's Club night ' Tabletop and Macro' Cleaned up my old microscope for a subject. ( it was covered in thick dust )
I like these, almost abstract images, one shot with Olympus E620 and the other with Canon 6D
Further along the wall south of the stairwell are the library's microscopes. You are able to check out keys for their use at the circulation desk with a valid library card.

The best 3D microscope educational app for science students and teachers.
Microscope parts 3D model brings you the best experience for learning the parts of a microscope. It helps a lot in remote practical lessons where teachers can teach biology students through a virtual 3D app like this, or learn by yourself.
Get the most comfortable and easy to use offline based microscope app for android. Its 3D interface of the parts will help you to understand very clearly.
There are many parts of a microscope. As a beginner, students often face difficulties while using the microscope for the first time. Microscope parts 3D model plays the role of a simulator for observing each part and gather more theoretical knowledge before practical use, in a fun and interactive way.
FEATURES:
● Language Support: The app is supporting English and Spanish languages. It will support more languages in the future.
● Easy to use: The app is a highly detailed 3D model for science students. That’s why the app is very easy to understand with a comfortable and easy user experience.
● Detailed: It is also made with a vast amount of details about the parts. Explanation of each component is shown when clicking. As a result, teachers and students both get the necessary information for using the app during classes.
● Interactive UI: Users will get ad-free and stable education of the microscope. This is a microscope parts app with a new interface, and it is optimized for any smartphone.
● Rotate, pan, and zoom: The app can be rotate following the device’s system. You can
pan and zoom the 3D microscope for a better viewing angle and experience.
● Pins: All the parts of a microscope are marked with interactive pins.
● Works Offline: The app can run offline. So the scholars can access it without the use of the internet.
Faith is a fine invention
For gentlemen who see
But microscopes are prudent
In an emergency

The Aberration-Corrected and Monochromated Scanning/Transmission Electron Microscope has the ability to image structural and chemical information for nanostructured materials, buried interfaces, catalysts, and minerals with very high spatial resolution. It will impact the design of new materials for energy production, storage, and the understanding of geo- and bio-geochemical processes in subsurface environments. EMSL is a Department of Energy national scientific user facility located at PNNL.

Sgt. 1st Class Roddy Rieger, U.S. Army Africa Command Surgeon NCOIC, views leishmaniasis under the microscope during Tropical Medicine Course (TMC) training Sept. 13, 2010, at Walter Reed Army Institute of Research in Silver Spring, Md.

The continent of Africa is home to many tropical diseases, which cause illness and, in some instances, death. Tropical diseases wreak havoc on the social and economic growth of the continent and affect the health and welfare of those who travel.
To combat the affects of tropical diseases, and to ensure the health and safety of all Soldiers operating in the U.S. Africa Command operational area, the Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences, in coordination with the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, has resurrected the formerly defunct Tropical Medicine Course (TMC) for the 21st century.
The original TMC was taught in 1941 and discontinued in 1991, after 50 years. It was resurrected in 2010 in response to the operational needs of AFRICOM and the Special Operations Command.
Once a six-week long course, it was converted to a targeted short course, and tailored toward non-physician health care providers. The week-long class is now a requirement for all medical professionals deploying to provide health care on the African continent, said Capt. Gabrielle Caldara, environmental science officer with U.S. Army Africa’s Command Surgeon’s Office.
Caldara, Sgt. 1st Class Roddy Rieger, the CSO’s NCOIC, and Staff Sgt. Darren Jones, a medical NCO with USARAF Headquarters Support Company, were the first Army Africa personnel to attend the class Sept. 13-17 at WRAIR in Silver Spring, Md.
The course focused on teaching medical personnel to recognize, diagnosis and treat a range of tropical diseases and ailments that can affect Soldiers who work and travel throughout Africa, said Rieger.
“There were a lot of lectures, seminars and hands on lab practices on things such as leishmaniasis and malaria,” he said. “We learned better ways to recognize symptoms and better ways to treat the problems.”
Among them was the Rapid Diagnostic Test, used to screen patients for malaria. The test uses only a pinprick amount of blood and “is as simple as using a pregnancy test,” Rieger said.
“This particular test allows medical professionals the freedom and convenience to test for the disease without requiring them to transport the patient to a medical facility,” Caldara said.
While Army Africa personnel attending the TMC appreciated the advances in treatment of many tropical diseases, Caldara stressed prevention and education remain key factors in disease prevention.
“This was a great class to understand the intricacies of these diseases, but in the end it all goes back to basics,” she said. “Proper precautions such as uniform treatment, use of DEET/insect repellent, adherence to proper medications and use of a bed net are essential.”

First Scanning tunneling microscope
IBM Research Zurich 1981
(Explanation from Deutsches Museum with wiki hyperlinks added by me)
The scanning tunneling microscope has given rise to new possibilities of investigating surfaces on the scale of individual atoms. Rather than "seeing" the atoms, the instrument "feels" them by scanning the surface line by line with a very sharp tip at a constant distance of a few atomic diameters. This distance is minimized in a feedback loop by the tunneling current tip and sample when a voltage is applied. The current is extremely dependent on the distance between tip and sample - the smaller the distance, the larger the current. Reducing the distance by only one-tenth of a nanometer (a millonth of a millimeter) increase the current tenfold. A tripod of piezoelectric rods allows very precise movement of the microscope tip in all directions. By applyingand removing a voltage, these elements expand and shrink, between 0.1 and 10 picometers (a billionth of a millimeter) per millivolt.
The STM measurement results constitute a field of scanned lines from which a three-dimensional image of the surface can be obtained in millionfold magnification e.g. by computer image processing.
Since the breakthrough of the first STM in 1981, numerous further developments and variations quickly led to a wealth of new knowledge in quite diverse research areas. The STM principle is generally considered a key in nanotechnology owing to its capability to image surfaces and investigate their properties on the nanometer scale.
and ultimately, even to change structures atom by atom. The first significant step in the latter direction was the controlled deposition of individual atoms in 1990.
The invention of the scanning tunneling microscope brough Gerd Binnig , a German, and Heinrich Rohrer Rohrer, a Swiss, both from IBM Zurich Reasearch Laboratory, the physics Nobel prize in 1986.
