UofG Physics & Astronomy @uofgphysastro.bsky.social · 29/09/2025Happy #WorldHearthDay- a very difficult organ to image! In the video you can see how our researchers used 3D microscopy to capture the growing hearts of zebrafish embryos - they were the first to do this while it beats. This could give us insights into the human heart. By @jtimaging.bsky.social 011
