Rainbow shading of a confocal micrograph of a developing mouse neural tube. The protein actin is stained and colored in rainbow to indicate depth in the section.
Happy #FluorescenceFriday! This is a maximum intensity projection of depth shaded actin (🌈) in a section from an E9.5 🐭 neural tube (NT). 🔬 by postdoc @christinaadaly.bsky.social 👩🔬 🧪 Image shows the floor plate and lumen of the developing NT.

I’m happy to share some plugins I’ve been developping this summer: "Channels and Contrast" and LUTs Manager!
I can’t find new bugs and ideas by now so I need your help to please test them in your machines and report bugs, feedbacks and ideas! forum.image.sc/t/looking-fo...

One out of many reasons why gills fascinate me 🔬🧬
PS: A recent study showed that the outer ear cartilage shares gene regulatory programs with the gill filaments of fishes and amphibians — the gills program has been repurposed to create parts of the human ear 👂

Excited to share my first PhD paper, published in @dev-journal.bsky.social
What if fish gills —often overlook —hold secrets about development, patterning, and function?
We uncovered how early patterning shapes adult gill architecture.

Development does not happen in isolation! Material properties, geometry, stiffness, fluid flows...can all steer how development unfolds. If you’re exploring these kinds of questions, we’d love to see your work @dev-journal.bsky.social
