With the help of advanced imaging tools, we can unravel the mystery of how viruses infect cells. The biosensor used in this image allows us to see the process in real time by turning from 🟢 to 🔵 with HIV infection. 📸 Sergi Padilla-Parra

The power of AI in predicting cell behavior could change the game for researchers. Hear more from Patricia Brennan & Theofanis Karaletsos on CZI's vision for accelerating science by bridging AI, engineering + cell biology bit.ly/3A4IdT3

Not to brag, but Aparna Bhaduri said it best! This job is pretty cool 😎

Through advanced imaging methods, Andrew scott can map the orientation + structure of heart muscle cells & how they’re organized into functional units. This unprecedented resolution could unlock insights into how the heart’s cellular architecture enables its function

It's Friday, so why not kick back with some beautiful art from the RWC Parks and Arts Foundation show? Every year California #BayArea artists come together in our Community Space to engage with their community + share their craft 🥰

How do cells choose a “career path”? 💼 🤓 Chiara Stringari + Aguilar-Arnal lab are using cutting-edge imaging technology to map how brain cells develop, moment by moment, from stem cells to dopamine-producing cells that help with basic brain processes

Imaging researcher Edith Sandström + team captured this image in under 12 minutes—the same image generated with the current standard of mass spectrometers would take more than 3 days! 🤯

6⃣ organizations leading groundbreaking research to advance climate solutions ⬇️ czi.co/3WUS59R

Researchers David Shackelford, Roberto Zoncu + Rushika M. Perera are using advanced techniques to track interactions inside cells. Here you can see mitochondria (🟢) + lysosomes (🔴) interact, they impact cell health, behavior & survival.

This star-shaped astrocyte, captured through a super resolution microscopy technique, is color-coded based on its depth within the tissue, providing a 3D perspective of its location + interactions within the brain 📸 Xiaoyu Shi

DYK? Astrocytes are related to neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer’s. We support scientists Anu Suomalainen Wartiovaara + Pekka Katajisto who are deepening our understanding of cell metabolism which could improve the health of these cells 📸 Sofiia Olander @ASW_Lab University of Helsinki

These glowing tubes are filled with nanoclusters that can emit near-infrared light allowing their glow to penetrate much deeper into the body’s tissues compared to traditional fluorescent dyes. The Copp Lab + team developed them to advance deep tissue imaging

🧪 Hyperglycemia is linked to neurodevelopmental disorders. Aparna Bhaduri, Plath Lab + Heather Christofk are exploring how nutrients during pregnancy impact brain development

Our genome is so big, it’s like a library with 10s of thousands of books made of 3.2 billion words. Bogdan Bintu + team are using chromatin imaging to visualize how brain cells use this genomic library to grow + change

.Su-In Lee is developing explainable #AI techniques for deep learning in Single Cell research. This could provide researchers with quick insights into high-dimensional gene expression & multiomics data 📸Mark Stone

Antje Keppler’s goal is to bring together scientists from different corners of the world, representing diverse communities in life sciences to provide training that spans the breadth of #imaging technologies #DiversityInScience

🌍 An estimated 5% of the global population is born with or develops a #RareDisease. We're making it easier to access genetic research with tools like GeniE and giving patients hope in their quest for diagnosis, understanding and potential treatments czi.co/3YUVpo3

Get lost in twin neuronal universes! 😍 💫 These images taken by @FelipeCourtg with a fluorescence microscope shows neuron-glia crosstalk, which is a key phenomenon for understanding brain diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's

Understanding how cells use nutrients could help us better prevent + manage certain diseases. Researchers like Anu Suomalainen Wartiovaara & Pekka Katajisto are using cutting-edge tech to get detailed views of how astrocytes & paneth cells of the gut manage metabolism on the #SingleCell level
