Tardigrades looking BIG

We are highlighting Jennifer Waters, a @focalplane.bsky.social Scientific Advisory Board member, Director of CITE, Harvard Medical School, and creator of MicroList (now featured in FocalPlane) and Microtutor, as an extraordinary biologist. #100biologists @jencwaters.bsky.social

Expansion microscopy of a tardigrade I caught outside with the objective I got on eBay

Bought more objectives on eBay

Putting the eBay objective to good use

Super resolution is super T cell Mitochondria labelled for MT-CO1

Shout out eBay, part 1 of the home microscope

So happy to be at #GEF25 thank you to the organisers and I can’t wait for all our future developments in expansion microscopy

#GEF2025 Such a fantastic conference 🥳🥳🥳

Great Cormorant, Preverenges Switzerland. Go birds

Happy Physio!

Go Physio!!!

Happy Physio!

Mitochondria!

Phase! Contrast!

Just testing out DIC on my cheek cells for a writing break

Happy Expansion Microscopy Day at Quantitative Imaging @qiatcshl.bsky.social

Our latest preprint www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1..., describes Willi Stepp’s project to make smart microscopy even gentler by doing event detection in phase contrast. We developed neural networks to detect mito-LD and mito-lysosome contacts, as well as mitochondrial pre-fission constrictions.

@fedegasparoli.bsky.social science! @qiatcshl.bsky.social

Great imaging today at Quantitative Imaging at CSHL @qiatcshl.bsky.social #expansion

Expansion microscopy of a tardigrade

Demonstrating how local environment impacts fluorescence 🔬🧪🥼@qiatcshl.bsky.social

The final version of our work on the in-cell architecture of the mitochondrial respiratory chain is now online in @science.org 🎉 You can find the full story here www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... @verenaresch.bsky.social did a wonderful job on the cover and animation, she really brought it to life 👩‍🎨

If you are looking to do GPU deconvolution in Fiji checkout the new updates to CLIJ (OpenCL for ImageJ) deconvolution. @nkiaru.bsky.social has done updates to the tiled deconvolution and integrated with BigDataViewer, and I've added a new script for batch processing. forum.image.sc/t/clij-openc...

Great place for microscopy

I'm so happy to share our work discussing nucleoid trafficking inside the mitochondrion and mitochondrial network, led by the amazing @jmacuada.bsky.social Available in @cp-trendscellbio.bsky.social www.cell.com/trends/cell-... #mito #mitochondria

The magic of the live #mito straight from the microscope 🔬 for #FluorescenceFriday - brought to you by #SYBRgold 🟢 and #PKMO 🟠 @spirochrome.com @carolinklose.bsky.social @lycasworks.bsky.social

Awesome modelling by @askeejdrup.bsky.social !! Great Investigation to links between dopamine dynamics and DAT nanodomains!!! In @elife.bsky.social: Computational modelling identifies key determinants of subregion-specific dopamine dynamics in the striatum doi.org/10.7554/eLif...

🥼 New research from the Lippincott-Schwartz Lab reveals a novel mechanism for signal transmission in brain cells & helps answer an open question in neuroscience about how intracellular signals travel over long distances in neurons.

Just chillin

Lifetime microscopy is just a phase

Rockin’ out at EMBO in situ with @lycasworks.bsky.social @jonasries.bsky.social Christian Zimmerli, Mark Bates 🤘🔬
