Announcing the winners of the Node–FocalPlane image competition.

Posted by , on 27 March 2025

We are delighted to announce the winners of the Node–FocalPlane image competition, which we presented at the Biologists @ 100 conference, as well as on the Node and FocalPlane. In first place is ‘Cell-estial bloom’ from Özge Özgüç. Özge’s image is a colony of live hiPSCs, with fluorescently labelled Lamin B delineating the nuclear lamina

Announcing our 2025 FocalPlane correspondents

Posted by , on 24 February 2025

We are delighted to welcome our latest correspondents to the FocalPlane community. We are looking forward to working with Sally Horton, Varsha Mahapatra and Nicole Noel throughout 2025 and can’t wait to read their blog posts! Sally is a postdoctoral fellow at The Francis Crick Institute in London, UK. At The Crick, her research focusses

Our featured image, acquired by Shivangi Verma, gives us a peek into the brain of a zebrafish. It depicts neurons in the whole brain of a larva expressing GCaMP6f, a fluorescent reporter of neuronal activity, using a pan-neuronal promoter. A 10-day old transparent homozygous albino larva was embedded in agarose and imaged using ZEISS Lightsheet

Our featured image, acquired by Upasana Gupta, represents the cellular architecture of zebrafish (larva) eye. The tissue was prepared by paraformaldehyde fixation of a 4-day post fertilisation larva, followed by staining with Hoechst nuclear stain. The sample was imaged and processed using Leica SP8 confocal microscope and Leica software at the Bio-imaging facility at the

Bioimaging Neurofilaments in vivo (Postdoc or Engineer)

Posted by , on 18 June 2021

In the context of an ERC funded project, the laboratory of Dr. Bomont (NeuroMyoGene institute, Lyon, France) is recruiting several fellows (2 postdoc, 1 technician/engineer). In particular, we are seeking highly motivated candidate who wish to apply advanced live microscopy methodologies to study the dynamics of neurofilaments in vivo. This project is multidisciplinary and will be
