Two-photon calcium imaging at 24,000 lines/s, with the resonant axis spanning 4x what other systems can do. Inertia-free. Diffraction-limited. No tradeoffs. Che-Hang Yu developed a 4x angle multiplier for laser scanning. His paper is out today: opg.optica.org/optica/fullt... 1/n #fluorescenceFriday

Next-generation multicolor indicators for in vivo imaging of norepinephrine - Nature Methods Improved red and green indicators for norepinephrine and their characterization are reported. These indicators allow detection of norepinephrine release in awake behaving mice in dual-color fiber phot...

The most sensitive green and red #norepinephrine #sensors engineered to date are out in #naturemethods! Deeply grateful to all our funders and contributors who made this work possible. A true team effort. @erc.europa.eu @snsf.ch doi.org/10.1038/s415...

Tracking #norepinephrine in vivo just got a major upgrade and it was a massive team effort led by @tpatriarchi.bsky.social .
Have a look at 🟢nLightG2 and 🔴nLightR2 on Nature Methods.
Kudos to all the great scientists involved!
ValentinLRohner, Paul Lamothe-Molina & Zacharoula Kagiampaki! 🧵

I have occasionally stumbled over the former, but I really, really need pointers for the latter. Bonus points they remain enjoyable after the first five dozen time readings :)

Welcome to #bps2026

We’re now represented by @Oxxius in the US.
Find our CEO @swarnck.bsky.social together with Anna Fasoli at booth no. 428.

As usual, get additional #photomanipulation info from the teams at Chroma Technology (Booth no. 413) and @sutterinstrument.bsky.social (booth no. 500).

Inscoper exhibit at BPS 2026 annual meeting from 21 to 25 February in San Francisco, US. On booth #709, Inscoper will showcase its latest imaging software innovations to experience smarter microscopy imaging.

We’re bringing smarter imaging software to San Francisco!
Inscoper is heading to #BPS2026. Visit Booth #709 to meet Olivier Chanteux and see how we:
✅ Streamline sequences
✅ Standardize workflows
✅ Design without compromise

Smarter imaging starts here.

To my EE students today: You are accountable for truth. Your success will depend on your ability to discern truth. Podcasters don’t have to build things that work. You do. Hype and BS aren’t shippable. You will break problems down into simpler pieces— the fundamentals—and then build back up. 1/2

PS I simplistically liken mask protection from airborne pathogens like umbrella protection from rain. To me it’s physics.

The umbrella will protect you from rain IF a) you use it in the rain, b) it has no holes, and c) it’s “right sized” so rain can’t come in from sides etc.
Too simplistic but..

„Lifestyle-Teilzeit", das sagt ausgerechnet eine Partei, in der viele Abgeordnete ihr Mandat selbst nur in Teilzeit ausüben, weil sie nebenbei als Aufsichtsräte, Berater oder Teilhaber kassieren. Jetzt wollen sie, dass Teilzeitkräfte ihre Gründe rechtfertigen. Vielleicht fangen wir mal andersrum an.
