They didn’t set out to find the key to the popular number puzzles called Sudoku, but this was an extra bonus for researchers whose loftier purpose was to resolve a biological imaging problem concerning x-ray diffraction microscopy. What they came up with was a difference-map algorithm that can resolve noisy and incomplete data from an x-ray diffraction microscope and that can reconstruct detailed images of minuscule and delicate biological specimens such as yeast cells. This allows precise imaging without staining the sample or endangering it by exposure to radiation. The researchers,...Read full article
