sorry Florian Ströhl missed that wonderful write-up analyticalscience.wiley.com/content/articl…

Shout out to K. C. Thibeault, Dr.ErinCalipari & the team from Vanderbilt University & Vanderbilt Center For Addiction Research! Their study shows that repeated cocaine exposure creates a unique neuronal ensemble that influences drug-seeking behavior. Another great work from The Calipari Lab!➡️hubs.ly/Q02DMZ880

#preprint alert 🚨 Can Large Language Models solve common #BioImageAnalysis coding tasks? And which #LLM performs best? 🙃🤓 Great collaboration with Christian Tischer, Jean-Karim Hériché, nico scherf and ... YOU? 🔬🖥️🅰️ℹ️🤝🚀 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Cerebrospinal fluid links the brain and peripheral sensory system and drives headache in migraine with aura! We’re excited to share our newest article just published today in Science Magazine . Please read along: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

A new plot post about interesting recent papers on astrocytes - how they interact with neuromodulation, neurons and blood vessels: gcamp6f.com/2024/07/08/fou… With some cool work by Thomas Papouin (Papouin Lab - WashU), Justin Lines, AraqueLab, Kira Poskanzer, Misha Ahrens and others.

We have integrated adaptive optics in an oblique plane microscope, where one deformable mirror corrects both the light-sheet and the fluorescence detection. opg.optica.org/boe/fulltext.c… Figure: cancer cells in a zebrafish xenograft model, before and after application of AO. 1/4

Reminder: there's a free, slack-like community for 2p, 3p, neuro, opto, etc. Come and ask questions, share notes, announce meetings, jobs, ... We just had a nice little discussion about prechirpers. 2p.ece.ucsb.edu/signup_user_co… Posts can stay as long as you like. No time limits.

Getting to attend the Biophotonics Gordon Conference in my back yard this week makes me miss academic research. So great to reconnect with old colleagues over science summer camp.

Welcome to this #LearningWednesday! This month, Nature Methods features an entire section on 3D histology! Emphasizing the importance of analyzing tissues in their full 3D context. Today, let’s dive into the editorial for this special session: linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…

Beautiful FocalPlane featured image by Jovan Brockett of LeritLab shows a Drosophila embryo undergoing syncytial nuclear division. It was acquired using a Nikon Ti-E inverted microscope with Yokogawa Life Science CSU-X1 #SpinningDisk #Confocal. Learn more: bit.ly/3YbcaLf

Cell biologists! This is a fantastic statistics primer custom made for you. Very practical, must-read! From Pollard lab five years ago: molbiolcell.org/doi/10.1091/mb…

Are you interested in an Introduction to Large Language Models; in the context of BioImage Analysis? Join my GloBIAS seminar this Tuesday 3pm CEST. globias.org/activities/bia…

Let me introduce: InstanSeg 🦠🔬💻👩‍🔬 This *would* have been a short thread about Thibaut Goldsborough’s PhD work… but he solved too many problems. Now it's a long thread about 2 preprints, a whole new approach to cell segmentation & #opensource software to make it easy to use

Science is built on trust. What happens when someone destroys it? My first feature for The Transmitter investigates the emotional and existential fallout for one lab in the aftermath of a misconduct case. thetransmitter.org/science-and-so…

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Chemistry with one half to David Baker “for computational protein design” and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper “for protein structure prediction.”

1/6 🧵 I'm building what might be the smallest #opensource #spectrometer with an easy to use UI! I call it a pocket spectrometer. Combining #M5StickC(~$20) with #AS7341 sensor (~$16). My goal? A complete spectrometer that is barely larger than a sample cuvette itself.

This paper has finally found its home Current Biology and is now available online: cell.com/current-biolog…… Grateful to work with this stellar team of co-authors! 🤠♥️🧪

I’m pumped to share that our new paper in Biological Psychiatry is out! We dissected a novel astrocyte-neuron interaction in the ventral periaqueductal gray (vPAG) that maintains wakefulness involving norepinephrine and dopamine neurons🧵: biologicalpsychiatryjournal.com/article/S0006-…

Haven’t been this excited about a novel contrast modality paper in a while - super exciting. Great work Lu Wei and team opg.optica.org/optica/fulltex…
