Abstract
The past 20 years have seen a paradigm-shifting explosion of new optical microscopy technologies aimed at uncovering fundamental biological insights. Yet only a small portion 'cross the finish line' into wide adoption by the life science community. We contend that this is not primarily due to a lack of technical prowess or utility. Rather, many risks can conspire to derail the adoption of potentially disruptive technologies. One way to address these challenges is to de-risk paradigm-shifting inventions within open-access technology incubators. Here we detail the framework needed to shepherd innovative microscopy techniques through the often-treacherous adoption landscape to enable transformative scientific output.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Microscopy is the oldest journal dedicated to the science of microscopy and the only peer-reviewed publication of the Royal Microscopical Society. It publishes papers that report on the very latest developments in microscopy such as advances in microscopy techniques or novel areas of application. The Journal does not seek to publish routine applications of microscopy or specimen preparation even though the submission may otherwise have a high scientific merit.
The scope covers research in the physical and biological sciences and covers imaging methods using light, electrons, X-rays and other radiations as well as atomic force and near field techniques. Interdisciplinary research is welcome. Papers pertaining to microscopy are also welcomed on optical theory, spectroscopy, novel specimen preparation and manipulation methods and image recording, processing and analysis including dynamic analysis of living specimens.
Publication types include full papers, hot topic fast tracked communications and review articles. Authors considering submitting a review article should contact the editorial office first.
