The #EZM2026 (European Zebrafish Society @ezsociety.bsky.social meeting) is in full swing! More than 500 (not only zebra-)fish researchers from all over the world gather here in Vienna for the next 5 days to discuss science, exchange ideas and make new connections. #Fish #Zebrafish #Friends

No better way to head to #EZM2026 than with a freshly published success! Our eLife paper is now out: elifesciences.org/articles/107.... We show optimised prime editing in zebrafish for precise DNA substitutions and insertions. Huge thanks to the fantastic team #Zebrafish #GenomeEditing #eLife

Come to the Bruker Fluorescence Microscopy booth at the #EZM2026 zebrafish meeting in Vienna this week to learn how to capture movies like this one below in high throughput.

Here fish go! #EZM2026

Celebrate #ModelMonday with all these amazing images of embryogenesis! thenode.biologists.com/results-of-t...

We are excited to announce the results of the YEN 2026 Image Competition! Thanks to all who submitted an entry. This year amazing work has been shared with us complementing our perspectives talks on art+science. We congratulate the winners of the YEN and public votes! #yen2026 #yenimagecompetition

#2 Close collaboration with @rocha-lab.bsky.social across institutes. @catfigueiredo.bsky.social shows that neurogenic progenitors in the developing retina can respond to cell death with an unexpected self-renewing division. I am sure Mauricio has more to say :-). www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

We are trying for a hattrick this month and two out of three are out: #1 Great work by Margarida Cruz et al. showing that tissue context in addition to cell intrinsic programs can determine migration mode of neurons. Retinal Bipolar Cells as an example. Check it out! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

I really look forward to next week in Vienna #EZM2026. Happy to meet all the researchers using zebrafish in their research. I have been in touch with so many of you about the Bruker Luxendo microscopes. It will be good to meet in person!

Annual killifish continue to surprise us: they make neutrophils before almost every other cell type, even before gastrulation. Neutrophils usually arise from the lateral plate mesoderm (forming in cyan), but in killifish they are already patrolling around the embryo in gold. tinyurl.com/killiphil

🔬 Innovation happens at the intersection of engineering and biology • Dr Kate McDole shares how advanced imaging reveals previously hidden dynamics in early mouse development. • Dr Jan Roden shares insights into the engineering and software that make such visualisation possible. 1/2

🤔 How do organs measure and control their size? 🐟 The Mateus Lab @ritamateus.bsky.social at PoL & @mpi-cbg.de use #zebrafish to understand how organs form the right size and shape, at the right time, during development or regeneration. Learn more in our new video 👉 youtu.be/L7XUfk0s51E

I'll be at the Dutch Neuroscience Meeting #DNM26. Happy to talk to anyone interested in microscopy. 🔬 multiphoton for the challenging in vivo experiments - optogenetics, voltage imaging, large field of view imaging 🔬 miniscopes for imaging in freely moving animals 🔬 lightsheet for the cleared brains

Look, people. We have superb keynotes, we are giving prizes, we are giving postdocs a megaphone to tell everyone why they should be hired. This is the meeting to be at. Sign up, join us, and have the time of your life while discussing science with people that know where the cleithrum is🐟🧪

If you think about moving towards live imaging and higher throughputs with your 3D samples, this event can be a good start! It will cover @brukercorporation.bsky.social Luxendo #lightsheet microscopes as well as the Acquifer IM screening microscope and #HIVE server www.bruker.com/en/news-and-...

Vote for a @dev-journal.bsky.social cover from the 2025 Quintay International Course on Developmental Biology We’re excited to launch a cover competition to select an image from the 2025 cohort of @devbioquintay.bsky.social. Voting closes on 24 June 2026. thenode.biologists.com/vote-for-a-d...

A next episode of the Bruker Fluorescence Microscopy #lightsheet podcast digging deep into image registration in light-sheet microscopy. www.bruker.com/en/products-...

Next week Wednesday-Friday I will be in Wroclaw mainly to attend an oncology conference at Łukasiewicz - PORT. I will be there with our distributor Labsoft to talk about Bruker Fluorescence Microscopy microscopes to whoever is willing to listen :-)

Last week we installed the Bruker Fluorescence Microscopy Ultima 2P Plus multiphoton in Krakow, Poland at the Uniwersytet Jagielloński-Collegium Medicum. How the week ended vs. how it started 👇

21st century dev bio at its best! I can't help but point out that not one but two Bruker microscopes (Acquifer IM, MuVi) were used for gentle&long term time lapse imaging of developing Nematostella here. No need to mount your invertebrate (cnidaria, planaria, crustaceans), we can do the time lapse!

Now published. Congrats to Soham and all co-authors! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/.... @embl.org

Like last year, we are running an online Bruker Fluorescence Microscopy neuroscience miniconference. It is focused on the actual science one can do with our microscopes presented by researchers, not sales presentations.

We are looking for an experienced light microscopy specialist, motivated to support our users in the Advanced Light Microscopy Facility at EMBL Heidelberg. embl.wd103.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/EMBL/j... -closing date 11 May 2026 @eurobioimaging.bsky.social @globalbioimaging.bsky.social

I suppose most EU zebrafish researchers will attend European zebrafish meeting in July in Vienna #EZM2026. It is going to be a great event like the previous one in Krakow. Important note for you: Come early, already on 6th in the evening. The conference starts with Bruker Luxendo workshop on 7th.

Our study on shape diversity in cnidarians is now published. The final version includes extensive new data that substantially extend the original bioRxiv preprint. Congrats to everyone who contributed to this work! www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... @embl.org

Whoever tried some lightsheet microscopy knows that image acquisition is the fun easy part. The real challenge comes later. This @brukercorporation.bsky.social Luxendo podcast episode touches on the real challenges. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAjl...

📢New behind the paper story Using the #zebrafish retina as a model, Jaakko Lehtimäki @jalehtimaki.bsky.social, Caren Norden @nordenlab.bsky.social & team dissect multipolar migration in the developing brain. In this post, Jaakko takes us through their research.

Lovely perspective on the recent paper by @nordenlab.bsky.social, written by first-author (and former Postdoc) @jalehtimaki.bsky.social 🐟 🔗 to feature: focalplane.biologists.com/2026/03/11/s... 🔗 to original research paper ICYMI: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

If you are going to the 1st German Fish Model Research Meeting" in Heidleberg in September, consider signing up for Bruker workshop. The registration is already open. We will cover high throughput screening as well as time-lapse imaging on a lightsheet. www.bruker.com/en/news-and-...

One of the Bruker FM products I sell to light microscopists is a server for image processing and storage, the HIVE. >150 mainly imaging facilities over the years thought it is a good idea to get a HIVE and I'm sure they still do. Even the first installs now 10 years old are mostly still running.

I talked about this server for image processing and storage to all microscopists that were willing to listen (also to those not refusing too actively). HIVE underwent an upgrade for next generation hardware. So it is time for everyone's favorite pastime activity...a webinar! goto.bruker.com/4aCYm0J

For whoever going to BonnBrain in March, consider extending your stay by one day and participate in our hands-on! workshop. Imaging neuronal activity with Inscopix 2P miniscope and voltage imaging with the Ultima 2P Plus multiphoton microscope. www.bruker.com/en/news-and-...

Eye candy: article about expansion microscopy of protists. www.quantamagazine.org/expansion-mi... Unicellular eukaryotic diversity is often overlooked but I'm thankful it was part of curriculum during my undergrad in Prague. There is exciting and weird cell biology going on in different protists.

1/10 New preprint on bioRxiv Nanodiamonds for spatial resolution benchmarking in two-photon microscopy We introduce nanodiamond-based phantoms as a robust, reusable alternative to bead–agarose samples for PSF calibration. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
