Hi all, prototype of a napari-zenapi-streaming plugin is working using @zeiss-microscopy.bsky.social and @napari.org. - stream pixels from ZEN into multi-dim array and display live - stream pixels from ZEN directly into OME-ZARR (see video) For viewing I used: find-nuclei.github.io

4/n: Our ex vivo culture preserves the natural development as well as the natural interactions of EM cells with the surrounding ectodermal cells. EM cells often migrate in a 2.5D-3D environment and develop normally, making it suitable to study cell-cell interactions.

Our BrainSaw serial-section 2-photon platform acquires whole-organ datasets automatically and requires minimal tissue processing. It has a growing international install base and has contributed to 35 publications. Learn more at: swcmicroscopy.com/brainsaw/ #microscopy #neuroscience

A BrainSaw serial section 2-photon system. This particular example was modified from an TissueCyte 1000 commercial system. Others have been built from scratch or were modified from in vivo multi-photon systems. Each BrainSaw is unique, but all run BakingTray serial section 2-photon acqusition software that plugs into ScanImage.

Somatostatin tdTomato transgenic mouse imaged on BrainSaw serial section 2-photon. Full res images acquired at around 1 micron/pixel. Top images derived from 10 micron/voxel isotropic 3D stack.

Detail from a BakingTray acquisition obtained from a BrainSaw serial section 2-photon microscope. Image shows three AAV injections leading to expression of fluorescent proteins (mCherry, GFP, and BFP) in layer 5 neurons of mouse primary visual cortex. Imaged at 780 nm.
