An animal model for cerebral small vessel disease
Zebrafish can be used to study the cellular mechanisms responsible for cerebral small vessel disease, which is a leading cause of stroke and dementia.

New Huisken lab member: We’re excited to welcome Roman Tsukanov (@romantsukanov.bsky.social)! With expertise in super-resolution microscopy using DNA-PAINT, Roman will combine this technology with light sheet fluorescence microscopy. Exciting times ahead!

I read the caption first and thought the illusion might be because the y-axis was on a log scale, but it's not!
My brain was bamboozled regardless.

Happy to share our contribution to this new work led by @michalis-averof.bsky.social! @bekeloh.bsky.social and @metteh-thorsager.bsky.social tested membrane tags in the annelid Platynereis dumerilii — many reached the cell membrane, and several also label the developing nervous system in the larvae.
Huisken lab is at #EED2026! @metteh-thorsager.bsky.social & @bekeloh.bsky.social will show how we use #Flamingo #light-sheet microscopy to address biological questions in the annelid #Platynereis, with imaging of the developing nervous system as an example (Platy Satellite Meeting & Poster P146).
New paper published! We explore how modern microscopy transforms biology from observing single examples to navigating distributions of phenotypes.

Honored to have two images from our lab selected among the Top 5 Research Images of the Year in Göttingen 🎉
The images will be exhibited in Forum Wissen until 10 April 2026.

Variation is a foundational biological principle that has historically been marginalized—both due to limited experimental accessibility and because of ideali...
Finding molecular tags that localise fluorescent proteins to the cell membrane was the goal of our latest paper, now published in Development @dev-journal.bsky.social. The tags act as address labels, sending proteins to the cell membrane, where they highlight the shape and arrangement of cells. 2/9
Summary: Screening a toolkit of diverse membrane-localising tags identifies candidates that efficiently localise proteins to the plasma membrane in a wide range of animals and choanoflagellates.
