Cancer cells don't live on glass slides, yet the vast majority of images related to cancer biology come from the cells being photographed on flat, two-dimensional surfaces. A new high-resolution microscope now makes it possible to visualize cancer cells in 3-D and record how they are signaling to other parts of their environment, revealing the previously unappreciated biology of how cancer cells functions within living things.
