3-D Video of a Virus-Sized Particle Entering a Cell!

Viruses are hard to capture on a video, mostly because they are so swift and tiny. Now researchers at Princeton University have achieved an unprecedented look at a virus-like particle as it tries to break into and infect a cell. The technique they developed could help scientists learn more about how to deliver drugs via nanoparticles - which are about the same size as viruses - as well as how to prevent viral infection from occurring. The video reveals a virus-like ...
