#paper! We imaged the same brain tissue sample with lasers, X-rays and electrons to address both its subcellular structure and its physiological function. rdcu.be/cOiiv A few highlights: 1/n @AndreasTSchaefer @esrfsynchrotron @psich_en @DiamondLightSou @NatureComms
📰 A new imaging technique captures info about the structure & function of brain tissue at subcellular level and info about the surrounding environment🔎 @AndreasTSchafer @Trickymons @esrfsynchrotron @psich_en @DiamondLightSou @NatureComms Read more ⤵️ ow.ly/sZqM50Jhp7c

Earthset. The Artemis II crew captured this view of an Earthset on April 6, 2026, as they flew around the Moon. The image is reminiscent of the iconic Earthrise image taken by astronaut Bill Anders 58 years earlier as the Apollo 8 crew flew around the Moon.

Here's a spotlight article on our recent study! Tissue ultrastructure can be resolved with X-rays, which impacts not only how we can study neuronal circuits but soft tissues more generally. Kudos to Ana Diaz, @AdrianAWanner, @AndreasTSchafer and all authors.
🔬🔦Our latest ‘Imaging spotlight’, by @Trickymons, Ana Diaz, @AdrianAWanner & @AndreasTSchafer, highlights their non-destructive X-ray tomography pipeline, developed to map mouse brain ultrastructure, & considers future applications & developments focalplane.biologists.com/20…

This milestone unfolds the capacity of X-rays for mapping tissue ultrastructure without having to slice, which can have an impact on how we find answers in systems neuroscience and in the study of biological tissues more broadly. tinyurl.com/XRnanocrick
