Gentle imaging for delicate cells 🧫✨🔬 Traditional microscopes can stress cells and lead to cell death. With lattice light sheet microscope, researchers can gently spy on the tiny delicate structures in cells as they move during the cell cycle. 🎥 @ZEISS_Micro #SciShots

It's not a deep sea dweller. This is actually the endoplasmic reticulum of a cell, segmented and tracked through time.

Retro gaming is a massively popular Raspberry Pi application but building the physical shell of a gaming system can be daunting. PiBoy Mini is a partially-assembled device, so you can skip the daunt. You just need to BYORP: bring your own Raspberry Pi. raspberrypi.com/news/piboy-m…

Ve 22:45 bylo možné nad západním obzorem spatřit extrémně jasný meteor (bolid)!! V době exploze byl patrně jasnější, než Měsíc v úplňku a je reálná šance, že na zem dopadly i malé úlomky. Video od Dana Neumanna z Plzně.

Having lots of body hair makes it harder for biting insects such as mosquitos to get a good chomp of you. It's pretty intuitive, but there's also a science paper documenting this [full paper: buff.ly/3CmE5M0] [video: buff.ly/43IKs8a] x.com/natureinmemes/status/1…

Happy to share our new preprint: We imaged protrusions of Drosophila cells with cryoET and found filaments in the microtubule lumen. Subtomo-avg and RNAi suggest these are cofilin-bound actin (cofilactin). By @CamillaVenturaS in collab with Stephen Rogers. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

This black superwetting surface is based on cobalt-single-atom carbon nanoarrays. At room temp, it spreads out and stabilizes the silver sodium-potassium alloy, which is promising for high-performance metal batteries. Read more #OpenAccess ➡️ ow.ly/iZru50MtXPy
