A colorful start to 2026! 🌿 #ImageOfTheMonth
M. Batsale (Plant Virology team, @inrae-bfp.bsky.social ) captured a Nicotiana benthamiana cell infected with turnip mosaic virus — peroxisomes (yellow), viral vesicles (magenta) & chloroplasts (blue).

✨ December 2025 #ImageOfTheMonth
Whole rat hearts cleared with iDISCO reveal sympathetic innervation (orange) and vascularization (green). 💛💚
Work by S. Bertrand & A. Bonilla (INCIA) with S. Martin & I. Brunet (CIRB), imaged by J. Teillon (BIC).

November #ImageOfTheMonth goes to M.Pujol from LPCO lab (UMR 5629). Acquired with Transmission Electron Microscopy, it shows a polystyrene (PS) latex obtained by post-dispersion of a yogurt cup made of PS in water using a surfactant. The resulting particles are highly heterogeneous and large.

August #ImageOfTheMonth is from L.Congiu from
@imn-bordeaux.bsky.social. This is a 3D reconstruction of a CD68-positive particles (white) within the cell body of microglia cells (Red) in the mouse cortex. The confocal Z-stack was processed with Imaris software.

July #ImageOfTheMonth is from A.Drouet from
@iins-bordeaux.bsky.social. This image represents a neurosphere (150x150 µm) formed from dissociated hippocampal neurons cultured for 14 days under non-adhesive conditions. Yellow shows GFP expressing neurons and nuclei are showed in cyan.
