The long wait is finally over: The @thorlabs.bsky.social 8 kHz resonant scanner is available 🔬! It would be lovely if there would be a 30 mm cube compatible & acoustically shielded mount as well, but I'm sure that's going to come eventually! #Microscopy www.thorlabs.com/newgrouppage...

One of the people I'm indebted the most for creating stunningly beautiful #mesoSPIM samples was Martina Schaettin - who tragically passed away in March this year. To honor her memory, Elkhan Yusifov created an award - submit your best #microscopy images & videos! www.linkedin.com/company/mart...

Definitely the most unexpected @mesospim.bsky.social #lightsheet #microscopy application of the past years: Hunting dark matter with a lightsheet microscope! #astronomy 🔭🔬https://arxiv.org/abs/2503.20732
💥How can light-sheet help reveal dark matter?💥
Join Prof. Laura Baudis @lbaudis.bsky.social at #mesoSPIM Symposium, Oct 13–15 in Zurich or online, to see how light-sheet fluorescence microscopy 🔬 is used to image nuclear ☢️ recoil tracks to detect elusive particles!

Cool new @mesospim.bsky.social chamber design!
New chamber mount design for our @mesospim.bsky.social - magnetic kinematic bases from @thorlabs.bsky.social for the win! 3D printed (for now) bases hold the chamber snugly for precise positioning between experiments. Fill port on the front allows for media addition without disturbing imaging.

If you happen to need a #lightsheet #Microscope for cleared tissue on a budget: There is a Lavision Ultramicroscope on Ebay right now for $6.5k: www.ebay.com/itm/38806209... It's missing the laser unit and the PC but could serve as an excellent source of parts to build a #mesoSPIM 😉: mesospim.org

It was great to see you again @edwardlachica3.bsky.social & sorry for the punch!
I love attending workshops. I see old friends. I make new friends. And then there’s stuff that punches my face. @voigtvision.bsky.social told me about his scallop objective last year but I missed this slide. NA of 1.08 in DBE with a full 11mm of working distance. Wow!

Seems like there is a new ultracompact #femtosecond #laser source for #multiphoton #microscopy in town! 50 MHz rep rate means a 2-3 m cavity if there is a single pulse circulating in the cavity - folding that into that compact of a form factor is quite impressive!
