Our featured image ‘Two eyes looking at an eye’ from Elkhan Yusifov and Martina Schättin shows the developing neurons in the eye of a 7-day old chick embryo, labelled with Neurofilament antibody using a whole mount protocol according to the protocol in Voigt, et al. 2019. The embryo was cleared with BABB Solution and imaged on a Leica M205 FA microscope. The image was then post-processed with Fiji software and Fire LUT was applied. You can find out more about Elkhan and Martina in our ‘Featured image’ post.
