It’s fills you with childlike wonder and delight to see what you see under the microscope all the time on these magnificent walls and to see it shared with everyone who doesn’t do science(as a profession)☺️ #actin#cytoseleton#cells#protrusions

Is there a pattern of how they arrange in the drop or have I been staring through the microscope for far toooo long? 🧐😁#beautifulembryos

As a biologist, we have to often choose colors and the way of representation of data..but Pierre-Joseph Redouté’s plant illustrations are amazing and Nicholas Rougeux's collation and post processing and representation of data is beautiful! Lots of amazing stuff! check here - www.c82.net/work/

Such an important way of progressing in any scientific question, yet so undervalued!

Early mouse morula! Almost two years ago, I imaged my very first mouse embryo and since then I haven’t gotten over the funny apical domains (cyan)😍 nostalgic :) This beauty was part of the first immunostaining, I did when I joined the lab! #fluoroscentfriday

Hatching blastocyst! When you fix the embryos wayyyy later than you wanted to, because you got caught up;) still a beautiful one though 😉☺️

Fun movie of the cell surface of mouse morula. Jiggly protrusions, now the task of quantifying them💪 Any suggestions!?
