#FluorescenceFriday #Science #neuroscience Dendritic branches (green) in the mouse brain, studded with spines ("lollipops"), and myelin sheaths (pink tubes) that surround axons. Contacts between axons and dendrites called synapses facilitate communication between neurons. There are ~100 trillion synapses in the human brain, so collectively humanity has the same order of synapses as the 10^24 stars estimated in the observable universe.

#FluorescenceFriday #zebrafish #bioart To see cells as they really are, it's necessary to see them in the native multicellular environment in which they evolved. However, the deeper we peer into living tissue, the more our view is obscured by optical aberrations. Here, take a trip as we dive 200 um down from the optic tectum to the hindbrain in a living zebrafish, turning on adaptive optics to correct these aberrations as we go, to see oligodendrocytes (orange) and neural nuclei (green).

#FluorescenceFriday #neuroscience #bioart A minute sliver of some of the most complex matter in the known universe: a small subset of neurons (yellow) and pre- (blue) and post- (magenta) synaptic markers over 75 x 100 x 125 um in layers IV-V of the mouse primary somatosensory cortex, as seen by combined expansion and lattice light sheet microscopy (ExLLSM): The first six seconds show all pre/post synaptic pairs, the remainder shows only those pairs associated with the small subset of labeled dendritic spines. An insanely complicated computational machine.

How does an embryo reliably "compute" its form - "cell by cell" - using only local interactions and mechanics, yet produce a precise global body plan? I’m excited to share our Nature Methods paper "MultiCell: geometric learning in multicellular development", presenting #AIxBiology research led by Haiqian Yang and the result of a great collaboration with Ming Guo, George Roy, Tomer Stern, Anh Nguyen and Dapeng Bi. A long-standing challenge in developmental biology is to predict how thousands of cells collectively self-organize as tissues fold, divide, and rearrange. In MultiCell, we represent a developing embryo as a dual graph that unifies two complementary views of tissue mechanics with single-cell resolution: cells as moving points (granular) and cells as a connected foam (junction network). This lets the model learn dynamics from both geometry and cell–cell connectivity. On whole-embryo 4D light-sheet movies of Drosophila gastrulation (~5,000 cells), our model predicts key cell behaviors and the timing of events, including junction loss, rearrangements, and divisions with high accuracy, at single-cell resolution. Beyond prediction, the same representation supports robust time alignment across embryos and offers interpretable activation maps that highlight the morphogenetic "drivers" of development. The broader goal is a foundation for cell-by-cell forecasting in more complex tissues, and eventually for detecting subtle dynamical signatures of disease. Kudos to the team for this inspiring collaboration with brilliant researchers to push the boundary of AI for biology! Citation: Yang, H., Roy, G., Nguyen, A.Q., Buehler, M.J., et al. MultiCell: geometric learning in multicellular development. Nature Methods (2025), DOI: 10.1038/s41592-025-02983-x Code/data links are in the manuscript.

In the early hours of May 9, 2021, CCTV from a quiet neighborhood in St. Johns County, Florida, captured two teenagers walking side by side - 13-year-old Tristyn Bailey and 14-year-old Aiden Fucci. Less than two hours later, the same camera recorded Fucci sprinting back alone. It was the last time Tristyn was seen alive. But how did they get here? 🧵 👇

My top five tips to battle jet lag. 1. Early morning bright light exposure - This must be outside light from the sun. Aim for 30 minutes minimum. Light is the strongest zeitgeber that synchronizes the brain and body with the time zone you are in and resets your biological clock. The bright light signals to the brain that it's morning and time to wake up, and also activates the cortisol awakening response and inhibits melatonin production. 2. Exercise - Another zeitgeber that helps realign your circadian rhythm (your internal clock). Plus, it's great for your health. 3. High-dose creatine - Creatine can help support brain health in the context of stress. Jet lag is a big stress in the brain. Creatine starts to accumulate in the brain at a dose of 10g per day, and studies have found that 20-25g of creatine can improve brain function in the context of sleep deprivation. May not work for everyone but it works for me. 4. Strategic melatonin timing - A small dose of melatonin a couple of hours before you want to sleep helps signal to the brain it’s time to get ready for bed. This really helps when your internal clock thinks it is still daytime. 5. Avoid blue light exposure during the evening - Blue light inhibits melatonin, which is the last thing you want to do in the evening. Melatonin is the hormone that helps make you feel ready to sleep. Dimming lights or blue light-blocking glasses do the trick.

A Lens That Takes Derivatives US Patent Basis: US8610839B2 - Optical Processing System for Computing Derivatives. In a 4f Optical Processor, the first lens takes the incoming field and forms its Fourier spectrum. At that middle plane, a tiny optical mask multiplies the spectrum by iξ. This is the derivative operator written in Fourier language u(x) -> U(ξ) -> iξU(ξ) -> ∂u/∂x Then the second lens brings the field back to the real space. What comes out is no longer just a focused beam. It is the spatial derivative of the input field, computed by light as it propagates. So, this is the serious promise of optical computing. A physical optical train can perform operations that usually live inside numerical code: differentiation, filtering, convolution, edge detection, correlation, and many other linear transforms.
