There’s still time to vote in our image competition in collaboration with #ELMI2026.
The conference kicks off tomorrow, in more ways than one, with the Core Facility Day and the ever-popular Academy vs Industry football match!

We are thrilled to announce our new preprint from the wonderful @sorayavillaseca.bsky.social
Ever wondered how cells squeeze through tiny spaces in embryos?
Neural crest cells use Dynein to transport their nucleus along microtubules.
Check out the preprint!!

Happy to share our newest preprint. We developed guidelines and analysis workflows for FLIM Imaging in plants. Multiplexing with spectrally overlapping fluorophores in plants is now possible. Have a look. Any feedback is more than welcome.

Of frogs and men; The authors study the dynamic morphology of the second heart field (SHF) in developing Xenopus laevis embryos, and the contribution of Fibronectin 1 (Fn1) to this process.
Epithelia line most organs and form an essential protective barrier against environmental insults. In many epithelia, including the skin and gut, this barrier is maintained through continuous self-ren...
