Posted by , on 15 November 2024

Our latest FocalPlane features… webinar was a celebration of the research in Journal of Cell Science’s Special Issue: Imaging Cell Architecture and Dynamics. Our Guest Editors Lucy Collinson and Guillaume Jacquemet hosted the webinar with talks from Md Hashim Reza, Melanie Rug and Vikas Tillu.

Advantages of LED Illumination for Neuroscience Research

Sponsored by CoolLED, on 26 September 2024

LED microscopy illumination has disrupted traditional approaches to high-speed imaging and optogenetic stimulation for neuroscience, and the CoolLED Support Team are available to help researchers understand which filters, light sources and other components are right for each individual setup.

FocalPlane features... data management

Posted by , on 23 September 2024

The fourth webinar in the latest series of FocalPlane features… was on data management. Caterina Strambio De Castillia introduced us to the topic of research data management, while Tom discussed how to use OMERO from the perspective of a group leader, a microscopist and an image analyst. We wrapped up the webinar with a short

A general strategy to develop fluorogenic polymethine dyes for bioimaging

Posted by , on 6 December 2023

by Annabell Martin and Pablo Rivera-Fuentes. Fluorescence imaging is an invaluable tool to study biological processes and further progress depends on the development of novel advanced fluorescent probes. Excitingly, using polymethines as a scaffold for fluorogenic dyes, we have opened up a lot of new avenues for bioimaging.

Working smarter with LEDs and optical filters for widefield fluorescence

Sponsored by CoolLED, on 13 September 2023

Optical filters can make or break a fluorescence microscopy experiment. For widefield fluorescence, they also have the potential to unlock breakthroughs in high-speed, high-contrast imaging when used alongside multi-channel LED illumination systems. There are thousands of filters and dichroic mirrors to choose from, with the selection depending on the fluorophore(s) and light source. While imaging

Advances in Expansion Microscopy

Posted by , on 4 August 2023

Expansion microscopy was introduced in 2015 by Boyden and his team, revolutionizing the way we see biological samples under a microscope1. Taking advantage of the power of physical enlargement, ExM pushes spatial resolution beyond the diffraction limit, allowing us to observe intricate details at previously unimaginable levels. The underlying principle of ExM lies in a
