Halfway to I2K is BACK, friends of all kinds! Last year, 650 people attended 30+ TOTALLY FREE image analysis workshops of all kinds, across many timezones.

If you make image analysis software and want to teach it, workshop submissions are open now! We'd love to have your tool highlighted.

Field notes from a weekend PI at the #microscope: vesicle cargo lanes lighting up in real time like @FedEx. This is the ML1N PX domain in a fibroblast. Hot damn, there’s mind-blowing action under the surface of cells: this video shows 2 min of time 🤯 #Cellbio #MicroscopyMonday #SciArt #SciComm

ML1N PX is supposed to bind mainly PI(3,5)P2 but has some background PI3P binding as well. It’s a staygold fusion so the are photons to spare to titrate expression lower

Live cell imaging with the right probe is the pretty satisfying 🤓

Hey Keri, some nuclei wear their emotions on their chromatin 🤭 I’m sure this is not in any epigenetic text books. Ironically, I captured this on a Lattice Light Sheet microscope a few years back which protects cell from phototoxicity.

Cerebellar GRANULE Neurons are well named: tiny nuclei lol

Lots of things hitting all at once so feeling a little underwater, and this image felt kind of like a self mirror for #FluorescenceFriday 🧠🔬🧪

Multidisciplinary minds around one table at Solecki lab meeting. We channeled David Epstein’s Range to rethink a workhorse lab technique. Thinking loud, gesturing louder (classic me🙌). Ideas stretch far with a broad skilled team #LabLife #ScienceTribe #Science #Collaboration #scientists

Cherry Huang doing an awesome job presenting at DNB Department seminar with the kind of slides that stops you mid-note: rigor wrapped in beauty, intricate image analysis unraveling the #cerebellum’s secret migration choreography and . #Neuron #ImagingScience #Science #cellbio

This is a lovely article that showcases some of the outstanding work that my UCLA colleagues Tom Carmichael and Alcino Silva and their trainees have done over the past few years seeking to leverage intrinsic repair pathways. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/04/s...

If the future could look back, would it accuse us of laziness or denial? Our answers to existential threats often feel childlike: quick, shallow, comforting. Comfort is not progress, complexity doesn’t vanish just because we simplify it.

Love what I’ve seen of them too: been to the Sao Miguel, Sao Jorge and Pico. Just like Hawaii leaving some islands unexplored makes a great excuse to come back. My wife is Portuguese so I get the better end of family travel lol

My favorite hike on Madeira: Pico do Areeiro.
It’s the top shelf of the world: where grandma hid the cookies and all those mountain blooms.
Clouds fall beneath you. Colors riot. Time goes quiet.
