Abstract
The versatility of scanning probe microscopy, as evidenced in the capability for high-resolution imaging, mechanical measurements, and electrical probing, has great utility in biological research. This short review outlines both the strengths and weaknesses of the technique. A few examples of recent and notable applications give the reader a sense of the power of the technique and potential for contribution to the field.
