Have you grabbed your tickets yet? Our doctoral student, Fraser is going to be there with his poster “Polarised Fourier ptychography for enhanced imaging of hemozoin crystals in malaria-affected red blood cells: A simulation approach.” ⚛️💡 🔬🦟

@royalmicrosoc.bsky.social || @unistrathclyde.bsky.social

... and for sharing the demonstration kits developed for education & outreach, illustrating (1) optical imaging through the skin and (2) polarisation of light; the first presented at Education and Training in Optics and Photonics (ETOP) 2023 and the second coming to you in ETOP 2025 (Glasgow)!

How has a month passed by?

We had a wonderful day engaging with the
@instituteofphysics.bsky.social Scotland's Girls in Physics and Engineering event at the @uofglasgow.bsky.social Advanced Research Centre! 🧑🏼‍🏫📚
A huge congratulations on a job well done to Fraser and Naveed 👏🏽👏🏽 ...

Our group will be at the Riverside Museum (5-7 June), come say hello! 👋🏼

P.S. We have colour-shifting rainbows and spooky blood vessels -- look for "Light in Daily Life" in www.gla.ac.uk/events/scien... 😉

The upcoming Glasgow Science Festival is shaping up to be a fantastic event ⚛️💡

Celebrating 850 years of this incredible city and all things science in it!

Our lab @kallepallilab.bsky.social has a couple of very exciting demonstrations … see you there?

We’ve been very, very quiet here, haven’t we? Well! Back at it and keen to share all that we have been up to! 💡

Wrapped up January with a job well done! 👏🏽 💡
🎓 Our 5th-year students presented their work to the department and did very well! We are biased, of course, having had a wonderful group over the past semester! 😉 ⚛️
@unistrathclyde.bsky.social

A big welcome to Naveed Islam who joins our BME community and @unistrathclyde.bsky.social today!! 🎉 Naveed will be investigating novel microscopy hardware designs for democratising high-resolution imaging! 💡🔬🔍

We’ve been a little quiet here, we know! Updates and news coming up but who knew January (the joyful month after the winter break) was full of deadliness! 🫣

Stay tuned, more coming soon!

We will be there, and so will our 'optics' 💡
#BioMedEng25

💡 We have tables!!!!!!
#Optics and #Photonics, here we come!

It was a fantastic week for us, who else remembers this day in their ( #optics and #photonics ) labs? 😉💡

@thorlabs.bsky.social

Stay tuned while we sift through our outreach budgets — this is awesome work! 😉

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year ahead!🎄🎉
From us ... to you!

Hope you've had a great 2024 and have a good break ahead!

2025 already looks good! We will be working with Prof Culver and his team at WashU, developing solutions for safely imaging the brain! 🧠

Stay tuned! 💡

We did something today! 😉
Fingers crossed. 🤞

Public engagement and outreach have been central to our lab's activities! Here's a kit built and demonstrated at ETOP 2023 and making an appearance at next year's #2025ETOPGlasgow, too!

Looking for a kit for your lab? 💡🚦

Share to BlueSky up and running on Wordpress, and we have so many blogposts coming out in the next month in the run up to the winter break! 😁
Need more of this off other platforms.
You keep fighting the good fight! 😉

Curious? 💡
Well, join the information session on the 10th of December to find out more! 🗓️

So pleased this is happening again in 2025! We are definitely coming back for me 😉

🚨 Pre-print alert! 🚨
We have developed a robust protocol to reveal the ultrastructure of live Candida albicans using stimulated emission depletion microscopy, tracking organelles with high spatial precision for more than 12 hours.

We are delighted to announce the Strathclyde Optical Microscopy Course 2025 (SOMC25), taking place in Glasgow from 23rd July – 1st August 2025. No previous experience in microscopy necessary! Please find more details at shorturl.at/98lXJ, deadline 17 January 2025.

A biophotonics and biomedical optics starter pack! 💡
I have been looking for it ... and made it! 😉
Happy to add more, this will be an ever-evolving Pack, I am sure.
