Featured image with Rohit Nautiyal

Posted by FocalPlane, on 9 May 2025

Our featured image, acquired by Rohit Nautiyal, shows a monolayer of brain endothelial cells seeded on a glass substrate coated with fibronectin. The cells were fixed and stained for ZO-1 (LUT- Red Hot) to visualize the tight junctions and actin (LUT-blue). The image was captured with a spinning disk confocal microscope and post-processed with Fiji

Interview with Piyush Daga

Posted by Helen Zenner, on 3 September 2024

Piyush was one of the three-minute talk presenters at our recent science communication event, SciCommConnect. At the event, which we co-hosted with the Node and preLights, we were treated to fantastic talks on a range of topics. Piyush’s talk really stood out to us, not least because of the striking microscopy image on his slide.
