Cells contain thousands of messenger RNA molecules,which carry copies of DNA's genetic directions to the rest of the cell. MIT engineers enjoy now developed a way to visualize these molecules in higher resolution than previously possible in intact tissues, allowing researchers to precisely map the location of RNA throughout cells.
