Morgridge helping build a multinational bio-imaging community
BioImaging North America, a project housed at the Morgridge Institute, is helping a community of more than 1,200 scientists take their imaging research and technology to new heights.
Researchers illuminate HIV in cell-to-cell attack mode
When cells infected with HIV make contact with uninfected cells, a new study reveals how that connection unleashes a hornet’s nest of activity that helps drive transmission.
Searching for the biomechanical risk factors of preterm birth
Morgridge scientists have developed new imaging and engineering tools to better understand the mechanical triggers of preterm birth — a health challenge that affects more than one in 10 pregnancies nationally.
Cryo-EM studies reveal the ‘high-wire act’ of bacterial replication
Genome replication in bacteria frequently breaks down. Scientists at UW–Madison and Morgridge used Cryo-EM to precisely detail how bacterial proteins act like emergency first responders, repairing broken DNA on the fly.
