If you are interested in Array Tomography, check this out :).I'm certain it will be amazing. They are absolute experts in Array Tomography, and also funny ;).
There is still time to register for our webinar tomorrow (Tuesday) on "SEM Array Tomography: A Flexible and Accessible Volume Electron Microscopy Technique". Hear about SEM AT, what it is, what it can do for you.

Attention #worm people! . Did you know the @WormAtlas now has a YouTube channel? It's still severely undersubscribed. If you would like to see me beam away worms Star Trek style (kinda), you could start there :).

My new paper is out =).It's a review of electron microscopy (EM) in general and of EM in zebrafish neurobiology in particular. Also contains a decision tree for EM techniques. Could be useful for EM beginners and fans of #zebrafish, especially the brain.

Yes π».And they can do this right after birth:.
Each cephalopod's chromatophore organ comprises an elastic sac containing pigment of different colors with a set of obliquely striated radial muscles. When excited, the muscles contract, expanding the chromatophore, enhancing that color. [πΉ SaltyFlyTying].

At 4:15 pm come to the EM side. - we have electrons! :3. #Worm23.
Beaming of worms!.If you want to see me beam away worms, you can attend our workshop on volume EM on Tuesday, 4:15 pm at the #Worm23 conference :). I'll tell you why we beam them, why this is a good idea, when it is a bad idea, and how hard it is to pull off for yourself. π

Also in this workshop:. Mia Krout will show you how to freeze worms for best results in EM reconstruction and IHC . @Ben_Mulcahy will show you his cool volume EM methods for connectomes and more. Irina Kolotuev will show you how to democratize EM and how to do Array Tomography.

Some hidden details in the Wool Worm:. Did you notice there's sperm in the spermatheca? They are amoeboid in C. elegans. And I also added muscle arms :).(Which is a unique feature of nematode worms). #Worm23 #Wormart23
Worm of Woolcraft. I made a worm out of wool (plus some velcro) for the Worm Meeting in Glasgow #Worm23 . What's your favorite part of the worm? Can you recognize it in my wool worm?. @GeneticsGSA

If you're wondering what the yellow parts are: these are the H-cell (excretory system) and the coelomocytes (cleaning system?). So. kidneys/bladder and liver/immune system? Something like that π. #Worm23 #Wormart23 #celegans
