My '37th View of Mount Fuji,' is a January cover for @scotmicro's 2025 fundraising calendar!
Got it at SMS 50th Annual Symposium, where I gave a talk on #expansionmicroscopy :)
A 'mountain' formed by ependymal cell nuclei in the mouse brainstem.

Figure. PlantEx at a glance. A) During PlantEx Arabidopsis seedlings (1) are immunolabelled and primed with anchoring groups (1), are treated with hydrogel solution to enable polymerization with anchoring agents (2), have their cell walls digested and protein cohesiveness disrupted via homogenization (3,4) and physically expand to improve resolution (5). B) Dual-color confocal imaging of lateral root cap cells show COPI-coated vesicles (γ-COP, sec21, green) and trans-Golgi network (VHA-a1, magenta) pre- (left) and post-expansion (right). Adapted from Gallei et al. (2024), Figures 1, 3.

Last Friday, we wrapped up #EMBOExM 🧫🔬

A huge thank you to our organisers and trainers who made this course possible.

To our participants: thank you for your curiosity, enthusiasm, and willingness to dive into both theory and hands-on work.

🤯 A conventional light microscope can now see a single synaptic vesicle! The shape of antibodies! Conformational changes of calmodulin!

With a new #ExpansionMicroscopy method👇 Great times for curious minds to be alive!

Amen to that...and #VolumeEM is beautifully complimentary/adjacent to #ExpansionMicroscopy. I hesitated to hit the grandiosity button & name that this has "become" that, even though the parallel construction was enticing prose. An amazing time to see the #connectomics work feedback loops all around.

The glass amphipod Cystisoma is transparent because in the open ocean there is nowhere to hide, and its round head is completely covered in giant eyes. So when you're swimming far from shore just remember: you can't see them, but they can see you.

I don't think I'm ever going to get tired of expansion microscopy, so this makes for a great first post here to look back on in the years to come 😄

However, three orders of magnitude didn’t seem so daunting to Ari, Yuanyou, and Nana, so they built a bacteria-optimized #ExpansionMicroscopy toolbox that is capable of tunable expansion of individual bacteria up to 1000-fold in volume! 5/
