As part of the #digitization of the zoological collections at @leibnizlib.bsky.social, our student assistant Hannah is scanning whole specimens mounted on non-standard #microscope slides using custom-designed, #3D-printed adapters. 🔬

A student assistant operates a slide scanner at a computer workstation. The monitor displays a high-resolution image of a microscope specimen, while the scanner stands beside the desk.

Hands place a non-standard microscope slide into a custom-designed, 3D-printed adapter that fits into the scanner's slide holder.

Two non-standard microscope slides are secured in custom 3D-printed adapters mounted in the scanner tray, ready for digitization.

A close-up of the slide scanner as microscope objectives scan a specimen mounted in a custom 3D-printed adapter.

Last week: #SEH2025 in Bonn ! I gave my very first talk, about the Homology of the shoulder joint and forelimb muscles #anura. I hope to submit the paper later this year, so stay tuned 😉 Many thanks to the organisers of this congress ! #SEH2025 #herpetology #anura #amphibian #frog #toad

Testing #high-speed videography with @dagmarazyla.bsky.social to capture wing-folding in rove #beetles (#Staphylinidae). Some specimens seem to be too shy in front of the camera, but a few are quite good actors. Maybe this will develop into a student project 🙂
