We’re excited to welcome @kevin-dean.bsky.social to the #mesoSPIM2025 Symposium! Explore his innovations in Multiscale Cleared-Tissue Axially Swept Light-Sheet Microscopy for imaging from organ to subcellular levels. 🗺️Oct 13–15 | Zurich & hybrid Interested? Register now: t.uzh.ch/1Ss

Abstract Submission Deadline: TOMORROW, July 15-th 🎇

🎉 Call for Abstracts! 🎉 Abstract deadline approaching! 10 years of #mesoSPIM initiative – join us at the symposium for talks, demos & posters on microscopy, tissue clearing, and data analysis! 📆 October 13-15, 2025 🗺️ Zurich, Switzerland, but also online. www.adabd.uzh.ch/en/events/me...

🎉 Call for Abstracts! 🎉 We’re celebrating 10 years of #mesoSPIM #opensource initiative – join us at the symposium for talks, demos & posters on open-source light-sheet microscopy, tissue clearing, and imaging! Dates: October 13-15, 2025 Location: Zurich, Switzerland Registration: ema.uzh.ch/R7YRN

🔬 On June 6, we inaugurated the first #MesoSPIM in France at INRAE Jouy-en-Josas & ENS Paris-Saclay! A big thanks to @nvladimus.bsky.social , @mgarbelli.bsky.social ,Angeliki Vavladeli & all speakers and sponsors. Exciting step forward for #opensource imaging & interdisciplinary science! #microscopy

Did you know that Universite Paris Saclay has its own Benchtop #mesoSPIM? Interdisciplinary team lead by @christellelangevin.bsky.social has built their own setup, the first in France, and organized an inauguration symposium! Cleared baby sturgeon or trout? They have it! French bioimaging is strong!

New chamber mount design for our @mesospim.bsky.social - magnetic kinematic bases from @thorlabs.bsky.social for the win! 3D printed (for now) bases hold the chamber snugly for precise positioning between experiments. Fill port on the front allows for media addition without disturbing imaging.

Looking forward to the @mesospim.bsky.social #lightsheet #Microscopy anniversary symposium in October with @preibischs.bsky.social @adamkglaser.bsky.social @christellelangevin.bsky.social & many more! And to the next mesoSPIM decade! 🔬 Thanks @nvladimus.bsky.social & Co for organizing it!

I'm excited to be able to be in Zurich for the mesoSPIM symposium. This is a really fantastic project.

The culmination of years of hard work by Anna Maria Reuss & Co: aDISCO - a protocol for clearing & antibody-staining human formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue! With lots of @mesospim.bsky.social #lightsheet #Microscopy @ptrrupprecht.bsky.social & many more! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Have you heard about #MesoSPIM microscopy platforms for imaging cleared tissue? Join us to learn more about this #opensource #lightscheet device specific features, applications and discuss current challenges with experts in the field. #3Dimaging #LightSheet #TissueClearing #AI #DataScience #R&D

Want to learn about #mesoSPIM imaging initiative and network with microscopy and data analysis experts? Come to Paris-Saclay on June 6-th! Meet our team there! Registration is still open (and free)! mesospim-upas.sciencesconf.org

New release of #mesoSPIM control software! Major bug fixes and performance improvement. github.com/mesoSPIM/mes...

Some good news: 3 new Benchtop #mesoSPIM are being built! Scientists in China, USA, and Czech Republic are building the beautiful open-source beasts for their research. South America, what are you waiting for? Australia? Greenland? mesospim.org/setups/

New experimental feature: timelapse for #mesoSPIM! Because why not? You can now image live specimen, such as developing organisms. Checkout this SW version at: github.com/mesoSPIM/mes... and let us know how it works for you. Be brave!
