Making intrabodies from antibodies just got easier! Learn how we made 𝟭𝟵 intrabodies to bind and light up peptides and histone modifications in live cells. And thanks to Academia, all sequences are freely available. (video credit: Yuko Sato @YukoSatoT2) (1/15) www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

2025 = 45^2 It's a perfect square. It will probably be the only perfect square year you ever get to live in. The last time that occurred was in 1936. The next will be in 2116. So, make 2025 a perfect year for you.

In honor of our annual ChemisTree event @hhmi.bsky.social @hhmijanelia.bsky.social today, here's a repost of a little video I made a few years back to demonstrate how the ornament silver plating works! #chemsky

Relatively straightforward integration into an OPM, much better long term imaging stability.

We are looking for exceptional #AIScientist|s to join our #AI@HHMI initiative at #HHMIJanelia. We want to uncover fundamental principles underlying complex biological systems that are inaccessible without new innovations that combine #AI with experimental design. ai.hhmi.org#join-our-team 1/4

It's woefully incomplete, but I've made the start of a starter pack for folks interested in microscopy. Suggestions for who else to include (including yourself!) are very welcome. go.bsky.app/SaYfAX3

At ZEISS in Oberkochen, we have a stunning collection of old microscopes 🔬 in a place called Schatzkammer / treasury at the Carl Zeiss Museum of Optics / Microscopy - Although the origin of some of the 🔬 is unknown, they represent an essential part of tool development history & craftsmanship ❤️😀
