Hi all, prototype of a napari-zenapi-streaming plugin is working using @zeiss-microscopy.bsky.social and @napari.org. - stream pixels from ZEN into multi-dim array and display live - stream pixels from ZEN directly into OME-ZARR (see video) For viewing I used: find-nuclei.github.io

We have a lab website! cellmig.org Now fully hosted on GitHub. If you check it out, let me know what you think!

Cell Migration Lab – We study cell migration in health and disease

The Cell Migration Lab in Turku studies cell migration, cancer–vascular interactions and filopodia using microscopy and quantitative image analysis.

4/n: Our ex vivo culture preserves the natural development as well as the natural interactions of EM cells with the surrounding ectodermal cells. EM cells often migrate in a 2.5D-3D environment and develop normally, making it suitable to study cell-cell interactions.

This manifold looks to me a lot like a bent Lorenz attractor, so I suspect this paper and data will become a treasure trove for a couple of theoretical biophysics groups. That's it, thanks for coming to my journal club, and congrats on a nice paper @micromotility.bsky.social (N/N)

Pterosperma is a beautiful flagellate w/ 4 extremely long cilia. These cilia are so long that they can produce an entire spectrum of beating modes... To resolve the these beating patterns, we analysed >200,000 waveforms, and reconstructed the underlying manifold - strikingly low dimensional!

Tissue morphogenesis demands massive deformations, yet tissues must stay coherent. This is achieved through cell intercalation, also known as T1 transitions. But what drives them mechanically?
