1/2 🧠 Next stop: #FENS2026 in Barcelona. 📅 From July 6–10, we’ll join the #neuroscience community together with our long-standing partners Chroma Technology Corp. and TOPTICA Photonics. 😊 Come by and talk to @swarnck.bsky.social and @martinbrill.bsky.social.

1/4 🌱 Biologists spend enormous effort keeping their favorite organisms happy. But to understand biology, one often needs to perturb it. 🎯 Precisely. 💡 That is where #photomanipulation comes in: focused light used to locally modify, stimulate, cut, or disrupt processes in a sample.

3/3 🔬 Flexible by design: Holo4D can be added to existing or new single- and multi-photon microscopes and supports parallel multi-photon imaging with two-photon holographic stimulation. 📍 Not just light projection. Programmable 4D photomanipulation.

2/3 🧠 Especially useful when the biology is about cell clusters, circuit relationships, dendritic integration, or distributed cellular responses. ⚡ Applications range from #Optogenetics and uncaging to #Photoactivation, #Photoconversion, #Photoswitching, and neural mapping workflows.

1/3 ❓What makes holographic #photomanipulation different from point stimulation? ✨With Holo4D, light is shaped differently. An SLM creates defined holographic patterns that can be projected simultaneously in 3D. 📌x⏱️That turns sequential targeting into spatially coordinated stimulation across time.

📈or📉? Your downstream data is only as good as your starting material. Accuva Cellect offers IR capture & UV laser cutting in one #LCM system and a dedicated QC station for visual inspection. 👉 Or to put it simply: Cut. Capture. Verify. #LaserCaptureMicrodissection

1/5 🤔 What can you actually do with #FLUCS? 💡 FLUCS enables researchers to actively & flexibly control intracellular flows. Non-invasively & label-free. 📩 Get in contact with us to explore how FLUCS can add a new dimension to your research. #Photomanipulation #Bioimaging #Biophysics

3/3 🧠Multi-photon microscopy Custom Sutter microscopes with Photomanipulation/-stimulation, Optogenetics, FRAP, FLIM, & Holo4D add-ons. ✨Holo4D Complex, high-precision patterns in 3D. Study neural circuits, interactions & biological processes in new ways by stimulating individual cells/cell groups.

1/3 🇸🇪 We are excited to join #FOM2026 in Stockholm at a shared booth with Chroma as co-sponsors of the meeting. 📍 Stop by and discuss your workflow with Sven to explore which state-of-the-art imaging & photomanipulation solution best fits your needs. #Microscopy #Bioimaging #Photomanipulation

1/3 🇫🇷 We are excited to join the 2nd FBI Mechanobiology Meeting 2026 in Paris! Anja will present the “Latest Applications in Fast & Precise Photomanipulation” 🗓️ Thu 26/03 🕒 11:45–12:05 📍Come meet us & discuss your mechanobiological workflow. #Mechanobiology #Microscopy #Bioimaging #Photomanipulation

1/3 💡How do injured organs know it's time to regrow? 🎯UV-laser microsurgery was used to precisely injure zfish larval fins during live imaging, helping reveal how wound-adjacent cells initiate a tissue-scale Ca²⁺ wavefront & organ-wide repair response. #Bioimaging #Photomanipulation #ScienceAdvances

🇵🇹 Coimbra, here we come! ✨ We’re proud to support #ELMI2026 as a Gold Sponsor. We can't wait to hear what you're working on! 👏Huge thanks to @ppbioimaging.bsky.social for the incredible organization. 📆 See you in June! #Microscopy #ImagingScience #Bioimaging #ScientificInnovation #FLUCS

⚡👩‍🔬Electrical signals are key for promoting organ regenerative growth, a new study! Out now in Science Advances, from the Mateus group @ritamateus.bsky.social at PoL and @mpi-cbg.de along with the lab of Frank Jülicher @mpipks.bsky.social Read the news here: tud.link/7jzptz Video:©️ Mateus group

short correction: page 18, obviously the beautiful neuron image by Ana Sanchez Moreno from @andrewplested.bsky.social lab, dendrites with spines are shown, not axons.
