Scientists have found a way to visualize delicate organs like the brain and heart by letting light into the tissues and exposing their inner workings, no dissection required. In their study published in Cell, Chinese researchers introduce a new technique for converting biological tissue into a transparent and glass-like state, making it easier to visualize how biological tissues interact with each other at a microscopic level with exceptional resolution.
