The #MSCA results are out and the overall success rate is 9.6%. My friend with 96.8 score is in the reserve list! Interesting!

Which CAD software has AI tools? I mainly use OnShape and haven’t seen any AI tools to pop up!

The one you have is UPlanSApo but they have a new version UPlanXApo. It’s very good!

You’ve got to get the new 60X/1.20 W.

Haven’t taken a flight in 14 months ✈️
Won’t take one until April either, which’ll make it 17.
Just a reminder that travel choices do add up for CO₂. One person skipping a flight doesn’t ground a plane, but lower demand over time does mean fewer routes and frequencies.

Winter scene featuring a punt gliding across the River Cam, near a snow-covered arch bridge, accompanied by a 'Merry Christmas from the University of Cambridge' greeting.

Merry Christmas to all our students, staff, alumni and friends around the world 🎄

Bored over the holidays? Give our new preprint on how #microtubule lattice alteration by taxols can regulate #RhoA #signalling via GEF-H1 a read!

Perhaps a new mechanism of action for taxol #chemotherapeutics during interphase.

Happy holidays ✨🎄

Last project of the year: self blinking JF635 + lattice light sheet + #BigVolumeBrowser to deskew both volume and localization data (and render)

✨ Blinking #nanobodies that work for single-molecule localization 🔬
Our new preprint shows that the self-blinking dye JF635b restores robust, buffer-free blinking in #nanobodies, enabling reliable #dSTORM, #MINFLUX, and more, without chemical-switching buffers. Opening new possibilities for #ExM!

I was incredibly fortunate in this! The ups and downs were many but all those discussions helped make sense of a few scientific questions that are still ongoing and lead to further questions.

Large-field objective lens for multi-wavelength microscopy at mesoscale and submicron resolution <p>Conventional microscopes designed for submicron resolution in biological research are hindered by a limited field of view, typically around 1 mm. This restriction poses a challenge when attempting to simultaneously analyze various parts of a sample, such as different brain areas. In addition, conventional objective lenses struggle to perform consistently across the required range of wavelengths for brain imaging <italic>in vivo</italic>. Here we present a novel mesoscopic objective lens with an impressive field of view of 8 mm, a numerical aperture of 0.5, and a working wavelength range from 400 to 1000 nm. We achieved a resolution of 0.74 μm in fluorescent beads imaging. The versatility of this lens was further demonstrated through high-quality images of mouse brain and kidney sections in a wide-field imaging system, a confocal laser scanning system, and a two-photon imaging system. This mesoscopic objective lens holds immense promise for advancing multi-wavelength imaging of large fields of view at high resolution.</p>

This is one of the examples of designing a objective lens+tube lens and I was always wondering why they don't include the scan lens in the combo design.

I’d say there is no obvious reason for adding telecentricity! It would make the lens bulkier (i guess) but wouldn’t change the image quality that much!

New paper out! Combining single-objective light-sheet microscopy and time-resolved SPAD array detection, we massively accelerate fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) compared to confocal FLIM, making FLIM applicable to 3D specimen such as organoids and embryos.

Interesting! So one can say the GSG's role is purely translational?
