We are excited to share our collaboration with @pheereynolds.bsky.social, Robert Hindges & team on retinal plasticity, now out in Neuron! This work shows how visual experience during early development changes the anatomical and functional properties of amacrine cells and ultimately behavior!

I am excited to announce the latest paper from our lab, published in Science ! In this study, we show that thalamocortical-like circuits in the zebrafish brain process sensory information hierarchically across topographically organized forebrain circuits.

I’m very excited to share that our paper is now out in Neuron! 🎉

1/11 Excited to share my postdoc work from @schierlab.bsky.social and Rainer Friedrich! 🐟👃 How does the brain decide whether an odor is good or bad? In larval zebrafish, we find that odor preference is reflected in spatially cohesive neuronal domains of the olfactory bulb. 🧵

Huisken lab is at #EED2026! @metteh-thorsager.bsky.social & @bekeloh.bsky.social will show how we use #Flamingo #light-sheet microscopy to address biological questions in the annelid #Platynereis, with imaging of the developing nervous system as an example (Platy Satellite Meeting & Poster P146).

PhD opportunity in Huisken lab with Zgierski-Johnston lab @uniklinik-fr.bsky.social. Topic: Multiscale Structural Imaging of Cardiac Conduction: Linking Interstitial Remodeling to Arrhythmia at Sub-Cellular Resolution. Deadline 7 June 2026. #LSFM #lightsheet #bioimaging #engineering #biophysics

Happy to share our contribution to this new work led by @michalis-averof.bsky.social! @bekeloh.bsky.social and @metteh-thorsager.bsky.social tested membrane tags in the annelid Platynereis dumerilii — many reached the cell membrane, and several also label the developing nervous system in the larvae.

Honored to have two images from our lab selected among the Top 5 Research Images of the Year in Göttingen 🎉 The images will be exhibited in Forum Wissen until 10 April 2026. www.forum-wissen.de/event/resear... #ForumWissen #ScienceIsAlsoArt

New paper published! We explore how modern microscopy transforms biology from observing single examples to navigating distributions of phenotypes. doi.org/10.3389/fbin... #lightsheet #SmartMicroscopy #BiologicalVariation #visualization #RepresentativeSampling

New Huisken lab member: We’re excited to welcome Roman Tsukanov (@romantsukanov.bsky.social)! With expertise in super-resolution microscopy using DNA-PAINT, Roman will combine this technology with light sheet fluorescence microscopy. Exciting times ahead! #SuperResolution #DNApaint #lightsheet #LSFM

I read the caption first and thought the illusion might be because the y-axis was on a log scale, but it's not! My brain was bamboozled regardless.
