How do endothelial cells interact while migrating? Together with @jesseaic.bsky.social @scopeshifu.bsky.social @aicjanelia.bsky.social, we used #Cryo-SIM and #FIB-SEM to reveal a surprising diversity of nanoscale plasma membrane curvatures at asymmetric junctions. rupress.org/jcb/article/...

This afternoon's imaging lab at #IALSJanelia is all about subcellular structures, highlighted here by myosin (white) and actin (orange). These membrane ruffles were captured on our lattice light-sheet microscope by @cmhobson.bsky.social

🧪 @aicjanelia.bsky.social and @scientistrachel.bsky.social have just published a new quantitative tool, OpticalFlow3D, for tracking amorphous motion in 3D. Try it out and let us know what you think! tinyurl.com/OpticalFlow3D

My first post here, we have a new preprint out from @aicjanelia.bsky.social! Upright LSFM is fantastic for live imaging, but not amenable to all samples - especially those requiring an air-liquid interface. We worked with Tokai Hit to try to fix that. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

🧪 From ~2500 applications to various international microscopy workshops, we delineate fascinating regional patterns in research foci and microscopy usage across the globe. These data could help form the basis for tailoring microscopy workshop curricula to local needs. tinyurl.com/32c3fzvk
