Happy #MicroscopeMonday! This video from an aging pond sample showcases Paramecium, some cysts of hypotrich ciliates (likely Oxytricha), and a mat of Zooglea bacteria at the end.....

Caledonite and linarite, two hydrated copper sulphates from Leadhills, South Lanarkshire. This is the type locality for caledonite (and a bunch of other minerals including scotlandite and lanarkite). From the NMS mineral collection. #MineralMonday #MicroscopeMonday

Happy #MicroscopeMonday 🔬ft a gastric neuroendocrine tumor in a bearded dragon! Bearded dragons have a high prevalence of this tumor that originates primarily in the pyloric mucosa, are highly aggressive with consistent hepatic metastasis and intravascular tumor emboli.

not #microscopeMonday🔬 not #fluorescenceFriday: #TestingTuesday 🤦‍♂️. Assessing 3D algos today. @wythelab.bsky.social & @llobrienlab.bsky.social turned me on to evans blue as an epithelial marker. BTW, algo failed (hint: rt hemisphere aysmmetry). Lightsheet microscope from @the.3i.social

A closer look reveals this riverfly's intricate design of their protective case!

Can you name the family of this critter?

#MicroscopeMonday Cross-section of a Kalanchoe marnieriana leaf, with what appears to be emerging but dormant foliar embryo (a dome) near the top.

Kalanchoe marnieriana is a facultative cloning plant, which normally does not produce plantlets but do produce plantlets when leaves are detached.

It isn't #Microscopemonday but it was certainly Microscope Friday today at the Fall @nesmicroscopy.bsky.social meeting.

Was awesome catching up with fellow microscope people from forever ago and meeting new people today and all those in between.

Very much looking forward to the next one. Yay 🔬

SEM image of halloysite from Elgin for #MineralMonday. Halloysite is a rare polymorph of kaolinite, in which the clay sheets are rolled up into tiny tubes. These 'nanotubes' have several potential applications in catalysis and drug delivery. #MicroscopeMonday

for our first post on bluesky here's our new image processing available on our OpenCID database: you can now directly run #denoise #deblur #upsample with the new version of cellpose on all your images
thanks to the #cellpose team for their always top-notch dev

First #MicroscopeMonday contribution!

Early auricularia larva of Holothuria tubulosa (4 days post-fertilisation, dpf) shown in brightfield (left) and with DAPI-stained nuclei (right, blue). Same larva. Same view.

Bonus: this was also my first DAPI stain, imaged on an inverted microscope.

I missed the chance to post last Friday, so here is my #MicroscopeMonday contribution of a floating neuron from my #ephys slices. (indeed this is from the LC, no, not a NE cell)

Happy #MicroscopeMonday 🔬with renal coccidiosis in a juvenile snow goose 🪿! Most likely an Eimeria species, this parasite has a complicated life cycle to the kidneys. Typically, this is asymptomatic but heavy parasitism can cause death is due to renal failure.

It's #MicroscopeMonday - and this week, we're looking at gametes.

Our science and vet teams evaluate the concentration, health and movement of sperm - just like in a fertility clinic for humans.

Like our endocrinology testing, this is all to support our conservation breeding work.

Been a minute! Will return to #MicroscopeMonday and #SkullSaturday soon! Started the new job working in wildlife pathology so been busy!!

Getting the hang of #MicroscopeMonday 🔬

Meet Polly - a ~2-month-old Holothuria poli juvenile with transparent tissues and floral-patterned ossicles.

I work on H. tubulosa, but this tiny H. poli turned up in a lab mate's samples and is now our lab mascot - at least until a tubulosa appears 👀
