First Cape Verde and now Egypt - Messi and Argentina steal yet another win with the help of FIFA’s awful VAR. #KillVAR
This is such a great series from #NikonSmallWorld. Amy's @amyengevik.bsky.social images are awesome and it's so true that you can submit images you think are the best and when they don't get picked you're like 'awww...' It doesn't matter though - keep submitting and trust your gut! 😜

Of course, my all-time favorite is the fourth-place image.I actually submitted it three times. I remember submitting it the first time, and I think I did a different color scheme, and this is going to...

This developing quail embryo looks like it's thinking fiery thoughts for #FluorescenceFriday 🐣🔥🧪. Imaged by the fantastic @vanderspuy.bsky.social
OMG....stellar imaging Dan! 🤩🤩🤩
Exciting new #Zebrafish research from the #WeinsteinLab, led by Jong Park! “Specialized gas-exchange endothelium of the zebrafish gill” — www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... Amazing to see red blood cells moving through the gills! Don’t forget to check out the supplemental movies ;-)
🙄 This is a microcosm of politics in my country: "Trump added that he did not remember meeting Zhao, had “no idea who he is” other than being told that the multibillionaire crypto boss was a victim of a “witch-hunt” by former president Joe Biden." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Trump says he doesn’t know who crypto tycoon is despite having pardoned him
Billionaire Changpeng Zhao pleaded guilty to enabling money laundering before president freed him last month

This is an airyscan confocal movie of mitochondria (white) moving around in a mouse astrocyte. Actin filaments are in orange and microtubules are in blue.

🐣Chick embryo (Gallus gallus domesticus): a window into vertebrate development. From heart and limb formation to neural crest migration and axis patterning, this model has been cracking the developmental code for over a century. Image by Vincent Pasque #ModelMonday #DevBio
🐌💫 Snail embryos never looked so fabulous! Tubulin (white), phospho-histone H3 (pink), and F-Actin (cyan) light up this early stage like a cytoskeletal disco ball. Image from Clemens Cabernard & Adam von Barnau Sythoff 🪩🧬 #FluorescenceFriday
This reminds me of keyword stuffing webpages in the late 90’s to improve search engine results. Old dogs - old tricks. 😂
Hidden prompts in articles to fool #AI reviewers! It'sbrilliant, it's resistance and it's self-defense! It shows the massively wealthy publishing companies that cutting corners is bad for #science! They could use their wealth to pay independent reviewers.... 🧪 www.theregister.com/AMP/2025/07/...
A day ahead of #FluorescenceFriday, a (temporal) switch from the bulb to the cortex. 🟣 NeuN 🔵 AnkG 🔬🧠🧪
I’ve been in Venice since Thursday and honestly….what wedding?
New chamber mount design for our @mesospim.bsky.social - magnetic kinematic bases from @thorlabs.bsky.social for the win! 3D printed (for now) bases hold the chamber snugly for precise positioning between experiments. Fill port on the front allows for media addition without disturbing imaging.
🔬✨ Today for #FluorescenceFriday: A close-up of the dorsal part of the first gill arch in a mature zebrafish. The intricate vascular network supporting respiration, visualized using kdrl:mcherry. #Zebrafish #DevBio #Microscopy #Fluorescence #SciArt
This is a fantastic idea for the future of cores. Building >>> buying. 👏👏👏
1/n We have an exciting new initiative at UPenn to provide custom advanced microscopy solutions: Advanced Core for Microscope Engineering (ACME): www.med.upenn.edu/cdbacme/ We are looking for a specialist to help run this new facility, job description is attached please help share widely!
In 2019, the #mesoSPIM and #ctASLM #lightsheet #Microscopy papers appeared back-to-back in @naturemethods.bsky.social - now Jinlong Lin, @zacsimile.bsky.social & @kevin-dean.bsky.social & Co introduce the MCT-ASLM - a chimera of both for smart multiscale #imaging! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Happy #FluorescenceFriday to those who celebrate! Here's a beautiful quail neural tube and somites labelled for microtubules 🟠 and actin 🔵. Imaged by Power-RA Siew Zhuan Tan. #devbio 🧪🔬👩🔬
