- Thx for @mollyherring.bsky.social for featuring our recent work with @centriolelab.bsky.social and our quest with @gautamdey.bsky.social & the support of the @moorefound.bsky.social to look for the beauty in every #eukaryote out there using #Expansion #Microscopy #UExM
- Even with the largest zoom on a classic compound optical system, scientists struggle to make sense of finer details. Microbiologists are turning to an unexpected source to clear things up: a moisture-absorbing material found in diapers. www.quantamagazine.org/expansion-mi...

- @bethcimini.bsky.social and I talk about the Cell Painting Assay a LOT, especially on our podcast Ask Erin/Dear Beth, so we figured it was about time to talk about what it actually is! youtu.be/9-d6DoHtgUY h/t @drannecarpenter.bsky.social #science #biology #cellpainting #microscopy #imageanalysis
- Global vaccine development has transformed from trial-and-error discovery into precision engineering 🧬✨. As Dattani explains, breakthroughs in #microscopy 🔬, #cell-culture 🧫, #genomics 🧠 and #mRNA platforms 💉 allow scientists to design vaccines almost atom by atom ⚛️ and develop them in of weeks ⏱️.
- 🚨 Job Alert! 🚨 We have an opening at our Microscopy Core Facility in Turku 🇫🇮. If you love imaging 🔬 and helping scientists succeed, we want you! 👇 abo.rekrytointi.com/paikat/index... #Microscopy #ScienceJobs #CoreFacility #Imaging @turkubioscience.bsky.social
- If your #microscopy images look almost right, the problem is rarely the sample. Small objective lens setup mistakes can quietly ruin data quality, even in experienced labs. We collected the most common brightfield pitfalls & how to fix them. #MicroscopyCommunity #ZEISSMicroscopy
- We spend way too much time manually analyzing #microtubules 🔬 Together with Mario, Justus, Dominik, Felix & Erik we used synthetic data and foundation models to build a fully automated segmentation pipeline. #microscopy, #imageanalysis & #AI Check out our preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
- #Molecular #phylogeny and electron #microscopy reveal 𝘔𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘢 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘢, a new golden #algal species found across 22 localities in 9 Vietnamese provinces and Malaysia! 📖 Learn more here: phytokeys.pensoft.net/article/1792...
- Meet 𝘔𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘰𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘴 𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘢 new #tropical chrysophyte distinguished by unique rimmed pits on its scales and genetic divergence from 𝘔. 𝘨𝘶𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘢. Discovered in the Philippines using electron #microscopy and molecular #phylogeny. Check out the study here: doi.org/10.3897/phyt... #newspecies
