Do wild-caught embryos develop in the same way as embryos cultured in the lab? This summer, Beke and Mette visited Luis at IMEV in Villefranche-sur-Mer, France, to start exploring this question in the marine annelid Platynereis dumerilii. #Platynereis #annelid #Flamingo #lightsheet #cell-lineage

#FluorescenceFriday ⚔️ DNA-PAINT vs self-blinking dSTORM, with #Vimentin as the benchmark structure. PAINT: tunable, multiplexable, almost no bleaching. SB-dSTORM: fast, buffer-independent, user-friendly, ExM-friendly. So who takes the belt? 🤼 The fight is on. 😄

Had a fantastic time at #iPoLS 2026 @lmu.de in Munich! I really enjoyed presenting our #Flamingo project, exchanging ideas with colleagues, and catching up during the social events. Many thanks to the iPoLS and CeNS teams for the excellent organization! @huiskenlab.bsky.social

Back from the International Polychaete Conference at the Senckenberg Museum in Frankfurt! A big thanks to the organisers and everyone who made #IPC15 such an enjoyable and inspiring meeting. I learned a lot about polychaete biodiversity. @etilic.bsky.social #annelids #polychaete

Huisken lab is at #EED2026! @metteh-thorsager.bsky.social & @bekeloh.bsky.social will show how we use #Flamingo #light-sheet microscopy to address biological questions in the annelid #Platynereis, with imaging of the developing nervous system as an example (Platy Satellite Meeting & Poster P146).

Happy to share our contribution to this new work led by @michalis-averof.bsky.social! @bekeloh.bsky.social and @metteh-thorsager.bsky.social tested membrane tags in the annelid Platynereis dumerilii — many reached the cell membrane, and several also label the developing nervous system in the larvae.

Studying cochlear neuroanatomy demands imaging the entire cochlea at subcellular resolution. In our recent study (tinyurl.com/isotropicLSFM), we recorded the cochlea at isotropic resolution across the whole organ, laying the groundwork for what follows… #lightsheet #isotropic #cochlea
