Happy to share our new preprint, a fantastic collaboration with @prevedel-lab.bsky.social ! We developped a probe that can switch between fluorescence and photoacoustic contrast upon illumination. Congrats to @kaydanych.bsky.social and Magda who led this project. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

6/6 This was a huge team effort, and I'm deeply grateful to everyone involved: Carlo Bevilacqua & Robert Prevedel @prevedel-lab.bsky.social, Connie Rumpf-Kienzl, Alexandra Zampetaki & Sebastian Fürthauer, Manuel Rufin, Orestis G. Andriotis & Philipp J. Thurner!

@embl.org Heidelberg is looking for a new Head of Scientific Instrumentation! This is an exciting opportunity at the interface between scientific research and technology development, overseeing our mechanical and electronic workshops! embl.wd103.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/EMBL/d...

Come join us in Berlin! Exciting conference on Brillouin Microscopy with world-renowned speakers in the heart of Europe!

Boehringer Ingelheim Stiftung has committed €7 million to the EMBL Imaging Centre. That means more opportunities to create groundbreaking, next-gen imaging technologies and provide the necessary support so European life scientists can benefit. www.embl.org/news/connect...

This is so cool - you are not looking reflection or emission of light here on the right - you are looking at a mechanical property of cells, in this case stiffness, using a custom created microscope. Excellent work @embl.org's @prevedel-lab.bsky.social and collaborators

Brillouin microscopy showing strength in non-invasive, live-imaging applications! Studying fruit fly embryos during gastrulation as cells rapidly change shape @prevedel-lab.bsky.social @gomezjm-devmech.bsky.social @marialep.bsky.social characterised & mapped mechanical changes in 3D. rdcu.be/ev6ZX

Fantastic work by @gomezjm-devmech.bsky.social! See below the updated & published version of our paper on the mechanical dynamics of cells during Drosophila gastrulation - out in @natcomms.nature.com! Congrats to the whole team - wonderful collaboration with @marialep.bsky.social & Julio Belmonte 🥳🙌

Fantastic talk by @hhmijanelia.bsky.social alumna and @embl.org group leader Dr. Claire Deo (@clairedeo.bsky.social). Stay tuned for her HHMI YouTube recording youtube.com/playlist?lis... #openscience @prevedel-lab.bsky.social @markkitti.bsky.social @kaydanych.bsky.social @rhodamine110.bsky.social
