I love to see the endoplasmic reticulum (ER, cyan) hitchhiking over microtubules (MTs, orange).
Also the membrane dynamics are lovely.
It's been a while, but here we are for a late #fluorescencefriday with some #microscopy

We have a project available for 2026 NRP Doctoral Training Partnership entry (i.e. PhD studentship opportunity!)
How do cells communicate when it's hot?
Don't know? Me either! Come work with us @johninnescentre.bsky.social and figure it out

How do cells communicate when it’s hot? (FAULKNER_J26DTP) | Doctoral Training Partnership
Plant cells are connected to their neighbours via ‘tubes’ called plasmodesmata, creating an interconnected cytoplasm that joins cells within and between tissues and organs.
