You've seen our transparent samples... now we want to see YOURS! If you're sharing 3D #MicroscopyMonday data, we know you've got some forbidden gummies floating around the lab.

Post your cleared tissues, tag us, and snag a discount for your next order of SmartBatch+ reagent kits! #tissueclearing

Change how you see 👀 your samples with #DALISPIM light-sheet imaging. Here, nuclear staining (magenta) shows thick layers of retinal cells on the back of the eyeball connecting to the optic nerve, with a thin layer of cells over the cornea. What else do you want to see labeled? #FluorescenceFriday

We’re gearing up to head to #CellBio2025, the joint annual meeting of @ascbiology.bsky.social and @embo.org. Meet up with our team at booth 228 to learn how whole-tissue imaging can add a new dimension to your #cellbiology research. 🧫

What can you discover with one powerful, streamlined pipeline for 3D #SpatialBiology?

Researchers in @katrinachoe.bsky.social's lab used whole-brain labeling, clearing, imaging, and ML-based cell detection to quantify OXT+ neurons across part of the hypothalamus called the PVN 🧵 (1/4)

Our data engineering & analysis team is excited to trade New England winter for sunny San Diego to attend #NeurIPS2025! We're especially looking forward to the workshop on "Imageomics: Discovering Biological Knowledge from Images Using AI". @neuripsconf.bsky.social #bioimaging

A new uniQure study shows promise for improving AAV-based #genetherapy delivery to the CNS. The team used the LifeCanvas pipeline to visualize biodistribution throughout whole mouse brains. 🐭 🧠 Learn more & see their #SmartSPIM data: bit.ly/4rixY3v

Happy #MicroscopyMonday! Our tools allow #neuroscience researchers like Dr. Jing Zhou (Pleasure Lab, UCSF) to visualize neuronal projections with stunning detail. This video highlights the intricate wiring of cortical excitatory neurons (red) in an Emx1-Cre; Ai14 mouse brain.

Aggrecan is a key component of perineuronal nets (PNNs), extracellular structures that surround certain neuronal sub-populations and regulate neuroplasticity. This video shows aggrecan in an intact spinal cord, processed & imaged with our pipeline. #FluorescenceFriday

At #SfN25 this year, we had the opportunity to support both the American Society for Chinese Neuroscientists (ASCN) and the Association of Korean Neuroscientists (AKN). We had a wonderful time connecting with researchers at both social events over food, games, and talks!

In a global effort to map #neurodevelopment across species, scientists in the BRAIN Initiative Cell Atlas Network (BICAN) used single-cell & spatial -omics approaches combined with imaging tools like #SmartSPIM to create detailed cell-type brain atlases: nature.com/collections/... @nature.com

Dr. Jacquelyn Salzbank et al. @columbiamed.bsky.social used LifeCanvas whole 🧠 visualization of #microglia to investigate the role of a placental hormone in sex-specific neurodevelopmental dysfunction. Check out the paper to learn more: bit.ly/47YsH8w

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) are fibrous structures released by immune cells to bind and kill pathogens. In collaboration with Dr. Mark Looney's lab at @ucsfhealth.bsky.social, we used #DALISPIM to visualize 3D NET formation (magenta) triggered by inflammation in a mouse lung. 🫁

Congratulations to our SfN Travel Award winner, Dr. Élora Midavaine! Her presentation focuses on neurobiological adaptations to chronic pain during pregnancy, using LifeCanvas whole 🧠 clearing and imaging to hone in on an endogenous opioid circuit that contributes to pregnancy-induced analgesia.
November 17, 2025 at 4:38 PM
Save room in your #SfN25 itinerary for some more 3D 🧠 data exploring research areas from brain development to neuroimmune pathways! Next week's poster lineup features presentations from Drs. @ingvildeb.bsky.social, Élora Midavaine, Quan Jiang, Zhen Wang, & Yidan Chen.

This weekend kicks off #SfN25! Have you made your poster game plan yet?

Today and tomorrow we'll be sharing a selection of posters featuring LifeCanvas 3D histology and imaging data 🧠 that you can add to your agenda. Check out our Sunday schedule below.
November 12, 2025 at 3:08 PM
In a new Nature study, Dr. @gabineiman.bsky.social et al. developed an in vitro screening method to predict transfection efficacy of LNP-mRNA complexes in the heart, validating it with #SmartSPIM imaging in whole mouse hearts. Check out the paper: bit.ly/444P0rT

That's not discount Halloween candy on the right – it's a cleared mouse brain! We recently went down to New Orleans to visit @tulaneu.bsky.social's Brain Institute and demonstrate #tissueclearing techniques for neuroscientists. Thanks Dr. Deniz Ucar for hosting us at the Cell & Tissue Imaging Core!

📣📣 We've extended our travel award deadline to Tues, Nov 11th. A few more days left to apply for $1000 towards #SfN25 travel expenses! Just tell us how you used LifeCanvas tech in your poster. Winner announced next Friday, 11/14!

Glomeruli, the filtering parts of nephrons, are visible in cyan in this mouse kidney section imaged with DALISPIM. In mice, kidneys have over 10,000 nephrons!

Our new open-top #lightsheet microscope's unique design allowed us to image this 1-mm thick sample directly in a 12-well plate.

Dr. Khalil Ramadi's lab at NYU Abu Dhabi used the LifeCanvas pipeline to develop CORAL, an ingestible device to non-invasively sample the small intestine #microbiome. The #SmartSPIM video below shows blood vessels (pink) & epithelial cells (blue) in rat duodenum. Check out the paper: bit.ly/3JncRfA

The days are getting darker, so we're celebrating what we can do with light 💡 Come hang with us at the New England Society for Microscopy's Fall Symposium at @brandeisuniversity.bsky.social this Thurs & Fri. We'll be ready to talk all things light-sheet #microscopy!

At first, these may look like individually mounted samples. But all 12 datasets were captured at once, directly in a 12-well plate, using our new open-top #DALISPIM light sheet microscope.🔬

Vasculature (CD31) in magenta, parvalbumin cells (endogenous tdTomato) in yellow, and nuclei (DAPI) in cyan.
