Happy #FluorescenceFriday! I've shared this before but am reposting b/c I think the developing #lung is just so darn pretty! This is an E18.5 🐭 lung with 🟢 marking cells that express my favorite gene, Shh.🟣 marks cell membranes. 🔬 by @stjuderesearch.bsky.social postdoc👩🔬 @christinaadaly.bsky.social 🧪

Guess you can use a timeline cleanser? Can I show you some microscopy? My job is to see beauty even in sad things (so we can learn how to prevent them!). This is a brain with early Alzheimer's. This image was acquired in 3D and took 72 hours to get ready!
