We present oblique plane microscopy with adaptive optics (AO):... One deformable mirror corrects both the light-sheet and the fluorescence detection. Movie shows cancer cells in a zebrafish xenograft model, before and after application of AO.show more

🚨🔬Ready to push the limits of advanced bioimaging? Our... team has two job openings at Chan Zuckerberg Biohub in #SanFrancisco! #lightsheet, #microscopy, #optics, #zebrafish and more. The first position is for a recent Ph.D. graduate who will design and build our next-generation advanced light-sheet microscope(s): The second position is for a more junior person (ideally a recent MSc or Ph.D. graduate with no experience in light-sheet microscopy) who will help build, maintain, and operate our existing and future microscopes, as well as help and train users on these machines: Note: The cover letter is critical! Apply, and also don't hesitate to reach out to me directly too: [email protected] #CZBiohub #jobopportunity #LSFM #Microscopyshow more

This is the foot of a chicken embryo after... 12 days of development, captured with light sheet microscopy. You can see scutate scales on the top of the foot and reticulate scales on the bottom 🔬🐥show more

#FluorescenceFriday #cellbiology #neuroscience Oligodendrocytes fluidly migrating along their thin... projecting neurites in the hindbrain of a developing zebrafish embryo, as seen by adaptive optical two photon microscopy. Ultimately, these neurites form myelin sheaths that surround and insulate axons to increase the speed and efficiency of signal transmission between neurons.show more

Mesmerizing light sheet imaging of neutrophils swarming at a... yeast target! The neutrophils were labeled with SPY650-DNA (yellow) and a calcium dye (blue). This movie is part of the recent manuscript by Evelyn Strickland that we highly recommend reading!show more

✨ Big Tailwind Plus update today — we added... dark mode support to all of the marketing and application UI blocks! Now you can preview + copy any of these examples with just light mode styles, just dark mode styles, or with both light/dark support 🌒show more

Light carrying chip patterns through a lithography system can... heat the system’s optics and deform the patterns. With wavefront optimization – computational lithography tools to correct chip patterns just before they reach the wafer – we ensure patterns appear exactly as intended.show more

PAID PARTERSHIP with Sagicor Jamaica With less than 5%... of women in this country getting screened for breast cancer, we’re on a mission to do better. We need your help. Book a screening this Breast Cancer Awareness Month and be a part of changing the statistics. Early detection saves lives. #GetCheckedshow more

"These hands are IP68 waterproof and food-safe, allowing NEO... to wash its own hands like a human. The skin is co-designed with the sensors inside it and the tendons behind it. It is a functional material, not a cosmetic one. Because vision alone is insufficient for many tasks (especially with small, transparent, deformable, or occluded objects), this contact feedback is critical for adaptive, intelligent manipulation." We are living in cool times.show more

'MIRROR, MIRROR' After years in the making, Disney’s live-action... ‘Snow White’ finally hit Hollywood — but with no red carpet, no fanfare, and no star power. The quiet debut follows Rachel Zegler’s string of ‘woke’ rants targeting both the film and Trump supporters.show more

We took a 30B model and split it in... two to write tokens in parallel instead of one at a time. Introducing Nemotron-Labs-TwoTower: a diffusion language model from NVIDIA Research adapted from Nemotron-3-Nano-30B-A3B. Here’s how it works: one half holds the context, the other writes the tokens, with both reusing the pretrained model instead of training a new one from scratch. We found it kept 98.7% of the original model’s quality at 2.42× faster generation.show more

New footage shows the moment a United Airlines plane... collided with a light pole and a truck while landing at Newark Liberty International Airport. The Boeing 767 was traveling at about 160 mph when it made contact. Air traffic controllers say there was a hole in the side of the plane and damage to the tire following the incident. The man driving the truck, Warren Boardley of Baltimore, suffered minor injuries.show more

I put a lens after the single slit and... see how aperture size affects the focusing of light, and we can observe that a larger aperture can achieve a better focus. That got me thinking, if we want to pinpoint a problem, it's better to view it from multiple perspectives. #opticsshow more

BREAKING: The FDA approved a cancer drug in 2024... that doesn't use chemotherapy. Instead, it powers up the immune cells you were BORN with. In trials, 62% of patients had all detectable cancer disappear completely. This is not hype. Here's what it actually is — and why it doesn't stop with cancer. 🧵show more

Train a TensorFlow object detection model – then deploy... it on a robot 🤖 Iulia Feroli (Iulia Feroli) shows how to turn a notebook into a real-time object detection app. This tutorial works for any project – though we demonstrate the deployment on (and assisted by!) the #ReachyMini, an open-source robot from Pollen Robotics. Built with PyCharm + Claude Code. 👉 Watch it in action:show more

🚨🇷🇺 Russian scientists develop medical microscope that can detect... hidden skin damage It uses polarized light to reveal microscopic details invisible to conventional optics without any sample staining or preparation 🔸 The device measures all polarization parameters of reflected light in real time, giving information instantly 🔸 At 100–200x magnification, it clearly shows inflamed pores, capillary networks, and the precise borders of moles—key for early cancer diagnosis 🔸 It also detects bacteria and performs rapid analysis of microplastics in food and water 🔸 One-button image capture allows instant comparison and easy sharing with patients or colleagues Once refined beyond the lab prototype, the tool could transform point-of-care diagnostics and environmental screeningshow more
