| Abstract | The history of cell and molecular biology displays an arms race between biological challenges and their technological solutions, regarding the detection and analysis of ever smaller structures and processes. For a long time, advancements in microscopy have kept pace with scientific motivations. But since fundamental physical laws cannot be simply overcome, appropriate instruments need to become more and more complex if modern biology does not simply want to stand still due to technical limitations. As a prominent example, the need to zoom further into biological matter in space and time recently sparked an explosion in sub-resolution techniques in microscopy. But is it actually always necessary to adapt our technology to the actual dimensions of biological matter if we want to understand fundamental processes? We know that biology works on many scales. So why not just try and upscale biological phenomena? |
