🗣️ "Hey FBI, explain how it works!"

Today, we’re exploring one of #electronmicroscopy sub-techniques: Cryo-TEM.

💡 Did you know? #CryoTEM is available on many platforms across France-BioImaging infrastructure.

Watch the video to learn more and find out where you can access it!

A fun (and useful) read💛

Nature Portfolio @natureportfolio.nature.com · 10d

Over the last year, Nature’s Careers team has been tapping into its global community of readers, writers, friends and colleagues to compile a list of laboratory hacks to help make scientists’ working lives easier. Here’s a list of 99 of those hacks. #Academicsky 🧪

These 99 'lab hacks' will make your scientific work easier

Nature asked contributors, editors and working researchers to share their best advice for scientists.

Starter packs are still valuable but there is now a mature set of communities @bsky.app

So maybe for the last time (unless things change)

An encyclopaedia of starter packs relevant to 'mechanistic' biomedical science (>100 now!)...

...including collective nouns

It is a well known fact that doing a screen on a rainy Saturday will slow down time. Fortunately we have books and tea and snacks and cozy walks to keep us company. #biologicalimaging #cellbiology
