Focus on Long-Term Imaging in 3D with Light Sheet Microscopy

Long-term 3D imaging reveals how complex multicellular systems grow and develop and how cells move and interact over time, unlocking critical insights into development, disease, and regeneration.…
TEM micrographs of polymer sections. Left: Poly(styrene)-b-poly(isoprene). Right: Poly(styrene)-b-poly(methyl methacrylate).

Ultramicrotome Sectioning of Polymers for TEM Analysis

We demonstrate the capabilities of the UC Enuity ultramicrotome from Leica Microsystems for preparing ultrathin sections of polymer samples under both ambient and cryogenic conditions. By presenting…
Artificial Intelligence (AI) segmentation used in conjunction with LMD to increase discovery throughput.

Biomarker Discovery with Laser Microdissection

Explore the potential of spatial proteomics workflows, such as Deep Visual Proteomics (DVP), to decipher pathology mechanisms and uncover druggable targets. Altered protein expression, abundance, or…

Volume EM and AI Image Analysis

The article outlines a detailed workflow for studying biological tissues in three dimensions using volume-scanning electron microscopy (volume-SEM) combined with AI-assisted image analysis. The focus…
Image of roundworm C. elegans acquired with a M205 FA fluorescence automated stereo microscope in combination with Rottermann contrast. Areas labelled with mCherry are seen as reddish purple.

A Guide to C. elegans Research – Working with Nematodes

Efficient microscopy techniques for C. elegans research are outlined in this guide. As a widely used model organism with about 70% gene homology to humans, the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (also…

How a Breakthrough in Spatial Proteomics Saved Lives

Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is a rare but devastating reaction to common medications like antibiotics or gout treatments. It begins innocuously, often as a rash, but can escalate rapidly into…

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).
