- Reposted by Leonel MalacridaCheck out this new approach to colocalization analysis from @owfpuls.bsky.social along with members of the AIC and Advanced Bioimaging Unit teams, now out in @jcellsci.bsky.social! journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...
- 🧪 We are excited to share this novel open access paper on Phasor Mixing Coefficient to analyze colocalization, developed by folks @i2janelia.bsky.social and @aicjanelia.bsky.social. This is also the first technical paper jointly published with our sister imaging center @malacridalab.bsky.social!
- It’s great to see this document supporting colocalization via Phasor analysis of HSI data, now available on confocal microscopes. Thanks to @scopeshifu.bsky.social and @aicjanelia.bsky.social teams for their collaboration starting in 2022 during the Imaging Latinoamérica workshop.

- Thanks @digmanlab.bsky.social and the rest of the FLAIR Workshop organizers for the kind invitation to present www.phasorpy.org Great workshop with amazing lectures and practical activities. sites.uci.edu/aimlfdworksh...
- Happy to share a chat we had with Peter O’Toole on his podcast “The Microscopists.” I'm extremely honored to be part of this series. We discuss my journey into science, memories, and the recent moment in Uruguay leading the Advanced Bioimaging Unit. themicroscopists.bitesizebio.com/episodes/leo...
- I am grateful and thoughtful to @biologists.bsky.social for supporting @muktarlawan.bsky.social visit to our lab in 🇺🇾. Muktar has been a wonderful visitor and now an ambassador for HSI and phasor analysis at @BioRTCNig in 🇳🇬 and across Africa. Looking forward to more messages in the bottle!
- We thank Muktar Lawan @muktarlawan.bsky.social for sharing his story. We are delighted this was such a pivotal experience, especially during the early-career stage. If you would like to share your story, you can send us a message in a bottle at biologists.com/100-years/me...
- Over the past days Andres Kamaid and I attended to the closing meeting of the “Regional Hubs project RI_Hubs_EULAC. Great results and exciting next steps to strengthen EU–LAC cooperation in RI Bioimaging+Structural Biology 🇵🇹🇧🇷🇪🇸🇺🇾🇮🇹🇵🇪 🤝🌎
