The NeuronBridge website, for matching #ElectronMicroscopy and #LightMicroscopy data for #Drosophila #Neuroscience research, now includes EM data from FlyWire. Getting it working was a great effort by @neomorphic, Cristian Goina, Hideo Otsuna, Robert Svirskas, and @konrad_rokicki. Here is a screen capture of looking up a neuron on FlyWire Codex, finding its match in NeuronBridge, then viewing the match in 3D with volume rendering in the browser.

"Researchers are queuing up to try a powerful microscopy technique that can simultaneously sequence an individual cell’s DNA and pinpoint the location of its proteins with high resolution — all without having to crack the cell open and extract its contents"

Are you doing cell biology or biomedical research? Light microscopy-based imaging? If a facility for (multiplexed) imaging would pop up in your department, what would you wish for? If you (would) run one, what is crucial?
I’ve applied for a (multiplexed) imaging facility manager job and would like to collect a few use scenarios (think tools, training, data analysis) to prepare for the interview.

#introduction

Hi fellow humans, I am Laura (zie/zir if possible, otherwise she/her), a senior staff scientist at #LSFOctopus advanced #LightMicroscopy and #CLEM facility at #HarwellCampus in the #UK, right next to #DiamondLightSource.

My science interest center around #EGFRSignalling and #RTKSignalling and deregulation in #CancerStudies in general. My tools of the trade are #singleparticletracking #singlemoleculelocalisation #CLEM #FIBSEM #VolumeEM and #CryoMicroscopy
