Optic nerve regeneration in the Xenopus laevis tadpole.

A Novel Laser-Based Method for Studying Optic Nerve Regeneration

Optic nerve regeneration is a major challenge in neurobiology due to the limited self-repair capacity of the mammalian central nervous system (CNS) and the inconsistency of traditional injury models.…

Fluorescence microscopy of sectioned tissue, showing the interface between the extensor digitorum longus muscle and the common peroneal nerve in the adult rat. Regenerative peripheral nerve interface (RPNI) at 2 weeks. Image acquired using Mica. Stained for nuclei (blue), neurofilaments (green) and S100B (red).

How to Image Axon Regeneration in Deep Muscle Tissue

This study highlights Dr. Aaron Lee’s research on mapping nerve regeneration in muscle grafts post-amputation. Limb loss often leads to reduced quality of life, not only from tissue loss but also due…

A Guide to Using Microscopy for Drosophila (Fruit Fly) Research

The fruit fly, typically Drosophila melanogaster, has been used as a model organism for over a century. One reason is that many disease-related genes are shared between Drosophila and humans. It is…

Integrated Serial Sectioning and Cryo-EM Workflows for 3D Biological Imaging

This on-demand webinar explores how integrated tools can support electron microscopy workflows from sample preparation to image analysis. Experts Andreia Pinto, Adrian Boey, and Hoyin Lai present the…

Blood vessel system of a zebrafish larvae

Overcoming Challenges with Microscopy when Imaging Moving Zebrafish Larvae

Zebrafish is a valuable model organism with many beneficial traits. However, imaging a full organism poses challenges as it is not stationary. Here, this case study shows how zebrafish larvae can be…

GLOW800 Augmented Reality Fluorescence used for real-time blood flow visualization in aneurysm clipping surgery

Aneurysm Clipping: Assessing Perforators in Real-Time with AR Fluorescence

This article covers two aneurysm clipping cases highlighting the clinical benefits of GLOW800 Augmented Reality Fluorescence application in neurosurgery, based on insights from Prof. Tohru Mizutani,…

Advancing Uterine Regenerative Therapies with Endometrial Organoids

Prof. Kang's group investigates important factors that determine the uterine microenvironment in which embryo insertion and pregnancy are successfully maintained. They are working to develop new…

Optical microscope image, which is a composition of both brightfield and fluorescence illumination, showing organic contamination on a wafer surface. The inset images in the upper left corner show the brightfield image (above) and fluorescence image (below with dark background).

Visualizing Photoresist Residue and Organic Contamination on Wafers

As the scale of integrated circuits (ICs) on semiconductors passes below 10 nm, efficient detection of organic contamination, like photoresist residue, and defects during wafer inspection is becoming…
