HL60 cells take on so many fun shapes as they migrate! This #InsightFromImaging data features cells prepared by Leanna and imaged on the @aicjanelia.bsky.social LLSM by @cmhobson.bsky.social
Continuing our speed theme at #InsightFromImaging, we spent the afternoon at the microscope exploring imaging speed, as well as tradeoffs in imaging scale. Video featuring imaging of neutrophil-like HL60 cells on a widefield vs the AIC's LLSM.
One last Bob's coffee break at @hhmijanelia.bsky.social before our final #InsightFromImaging activity: Participants are working in groups to formulate a hypothesis and design an imaging experiment to test it ๐ฌ

Still one of my favorite data sets! Congratulations Laura!
For our final lecture at #InsightFromImaging 2025, @jesseaic.bsky.social is discussing electron microscopy and correlative approaches, including results from our FIB-SEM system, which can achieve 4 nm resolution in 3D!
Today at #InsightFromImaging we're focusing on imaging depth, starting with a lecture by @cmhobson.bsky.social. Adaptive optics (available on our MOSAIC system!) can improve deep imaging, as shown by these mitochondria in a zebrafish embryo.
This morning at #InsightFromImaging we focused on particle tracking. After a lecture by @jesseaic.bsky.social, participants split into groups to use #TrackMate to track our HL60 migration data from yesterday, followed by presentations on their results ๐
We spent the afternoon at #InsightFromImaging in the lab exploring 5 different microscopes (& 5 different samples!) to understand approaches for imaging depth.

Getting started with analysis can be daunting, especially given the many tools available. In our latest @focalplane.bsky.social post, @scientistrachel.bsky.social & Owen Puls discuss framing analysis questions to extract informative biological information. focalplane.biologists.com/2025/12/15/h...
