"Seems"? What's the scientific evidence? Any data supporting that? This is not science, this is someone's opinion. 🤣

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Is it possible to stain specific proteins and cell types in old formalin-fixed human tissues and make them transparent for light-sheet imaging and clinical 3D diagnostics?

One of the people I'm indebted the most for creating stunningly beautiful #mesoSPIM samples was Martina Schaettin - who tragically passed away in March this year. To honor her memory, Elkhan Yusifov created an award - submit your best #microscopy images & videos! www.linkedin.com/company/mart...
