Researchers have engineered a microscope that operates near 0 degrees Celsius, allowing the first high-resolution imaging of living cells in Antarctic fish. The observations aim to reveal how these fish survive in frigid waters, with potential implications for cryobiology, cell biology and marine science.

Scientists have discovered that fish gills carry their own distinct microbiome, a community of microbes previously unknown to science. The finding suggests gills, long studied mainly for respiration, also serve as a specialised microbial habitat, potentially reshaping understanding of fish health, aquaculture disease management and how aquatic animals interact with their watery environment.
