As an AQLM alumnus, I wholeheartedly recommend this course to anyone eager to deepen their understanding of the science behind microscopy. The insights gained are invaluable for developing methods and conducting effective quantitative image analysis.

Happy #FluorescenceFriday! I've always been inspired by the intersection of art and science. This microscopy image collage, inspired by Andy Warhol, highlights the beauty of cells 🔬

I am extremely excited to announce that for the first time ever, Skype a Scientist is offering mini-grants to support IRL science communication!! Communicating science out in our communities is critical. We want to enable others to get their projects off the ground! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Anyone could help with an ID? I've been seeing this vortex of cilia inside different dinoflagellate species at different sites along the European coast. It's several layers of cilia facing into a central cavity, emerging from regularly spaces basal bodies (arrows and centrin ). #ProtistsOnSky

How did microtubules adapt to support life across 🐸 species at divergent thermal niches? 
 Now online & OA @currentbiology.bsky.social Thanks to Ella, Luca, @biswashere.bsky.social & Carolyn @mpiib-berlin.mpg.de @BirkbeckUoL

Happy #fluorescencefriday! One of my favorite images that was featured on the cover of @ascbiology.bsky.social MBoC’s October issue. Pictured is the microtubule cytoskeleton (white) and a colored temporal projection of EB. Check out the associated paper here: doi.org/10.1091/mbc....

Good work everyone! We have 1,071 scientists in the matching database for our 1st match of 2025! @skypeascientist.bsky.social matches scientists w/ classrooms, scout troops, libraries, & other groups. Want a group Q&A with a scientist? First match is tonight! 👇 www.skypeascientist.com/sign-up.html

I released the LUT finder: A plugin to see all your ImageJ / Fiji LUTs in a table with previews, auto generated descriptions and filtering! You can try it with the KTZ_LUTs update site or from github.com/kwolbachia/L.... I'm looking for your feedbacks! #FluorescenceFriday #MicroscopyMonday

In 2024 I spoke with 269 students from 14 different classrooms, 7 different grades, and 6 different states through the Skype a Scientist program. It has been so incredible to connect with students who are enthusiastic about science and eager to learn! Here’s the link to sign up if you’re interested!

Would appreciate a RT from the scientists for this one! We have 665 scientists in the spring database and I want to get us to about 1000 before we set the teachers loose on the database for January matches.

Mesmerizing work! The level of detail captured here is truly incredible 🤩

Happy #FluorescenceFriday! These are polarized epithelial cells with microvilli on their apical surface! Captured using the #Nikon NSPARC, and color-coded by depth #actin #microscopy @tyskalabactual.bsky.social
