“A #SPADarray in any laser scanning #microscope”. That is the latest effort from a group of people that shared this mantra. Proud of all of them.

Entrevista Miguel Laborde, tecnólogo argentino Miguel Laborde cuenta la situación actual del sistema de ciencia y técnica y su participación en el desarrollo de una pila que usa un submarino español.

Un submarino español usa una pila de hidrógeno basada en un proceso que desarrolló Miguel Laborde.
Acá lo cuenta con @aleberco en @pasaroncosas899

El problema no es el sistema de ciencia y tecnología sino el modelo de desarrollo.

Multi-Channel Nuclear Analysis: An ImageJ/FIJI Plugin for Automated Nuclear Segmentation and Multi-Channel Fluorescence Analysis | microPublication

Thrilled to share that my first #micropublication is out! 🧬🔬 I created a user-friendly ImageJ/FIJI plugin for nuclear segmentation and multi-channel fluorescence analysis that doesn't require programming skills.

Very excited to present our latest work: SPINNA, an analysis framework and software package for single-protein resolution data! 🖥️🤩

We can directly quantify stoichiometry and oligomerization from super-res (DNA-PAINT, RESI) images!! 🧬🎨

Read preprints. Cite preprints. Email people and tell them you loved their preprint. Email people you hated their preprint. Embrace preprints, preprints are good.

Our manuscript on accelerating the acquisition rate in oblique plane microscopy (OPM) is online now:

opg.optica.org/boe/fulltext...

Our work addresses the issue that an OPM PSF is tilted, and as such it leaves a lot of "empty space" in Fourier space (FFT of experimental data on the right)... 1/n

Another nice example from the 1st Snouty light-sheet microscope!

-> Here we show a mammalian cell with 2 fluorescent reporters imaged at ~1 volume per second. The speed and gentleness of the microscope make it ideal for 3D tracking and segmentation!

Hi #SnoutClub and microscopy people.
Can you suggest python software for 3D registration?
I want to find the axial shift between two z-stacks
Thanks!!

It's been a long journey, only possible thanks to my lovely co-authors who are not (yet) in Bluesky.
Big thanks also to @amsikking.bsky.social , @andrewgyork.bsky.social and
@lumasullo.bsky.social, they have always been there to help.
Stay tuned for new imaging on living Drosophila!

In addition, we can do 2 colours imaging...
Here the membrane is labelled in green (GFP), and dense core vesicles are labeled in magenta (mCherry).
We also show mitochondria imaging in the manuscript.

And what about the photobleaching?
We can image the fly for 30 minutes without bleaching it, and can get 10 times more images than with confocal microscopy!
Also, we don't rely on phototoxic pulsed infrared lasers like in 2-photon microscopy.

We imaged the axonal projections of small lateral ventral neurons (known as s-LNvs) in living adult flies.
The NA=1.1 allowed high spatial resolution.
Here, a line intensity profile showing features as small as 360 nm.

We used a Single Objective Light-Sheet (#Snouty, for the friends).
It is less invasive than a lattice light sheet because it requires a smaller dissection area on the head´s cuticula, as it is only necessary to accommodate the light cone of a single objective. And it is simpler. 2/6

Microscope objectives can be confusing, and detailed specs (or even basic properties) are often hard to find. Here's an introductory resource to help new builders and instrument designers with the basics. It's a work in progress so feedback is appreciated:
