Expansion with Magnify for #3DThursday this week!

This mouse brain tissue was imaged using Magnify Biosciences, Inc. expansion microscopy — a simple, low-cost way to achieve nanoscale resolution with a standard confocal.

Throwback from 2023:

People are always asking me, "how hard is it to learn to use syGlass?"

This student is a great example -- 10 seconds in the headset and he's ready to explore. That's because interacting with 3D objects is the same in real life and in VR: reach out and grab it!

Congratulations to the @erturklab.bsky.social lab for another big paper on nanoparticles, with some nice manual ground-truth segmentation created in syGlass.

Some pretty nice movies in supplemental materials, too! (Video speed set to 2X to accommodate Bluesky's 1 min limit)

Hi Igor, I appreciate your scientific skepticism. If you've annotated in 2D, you know how boring and slow it can be. Annotating in VR and 3D is way faster. Check out this old clip as an example of how fast you can go in syGlass.

Very happy to announce our winter release of syGlass: 2.2.0!
Now control syGlass with your voice. We've also upgraded the auto-segmentation, mask handling & proofreading, and the narration system. We've added basic support for @zarr.dev. Check out the changelog: www.syglass.io/blog/announc...

Happy #3DThursday! Featuring MRI human brain and volumetric segmentation -- explore and isolate segmented (or unsegmented) voxels for better clarity!

Happy #3DThursday everyone!

#Drosophila lovers -- check out this beautiful #microCT scan of the adult Drosophila, imaged by Dr. Todd Schoborg at UWYO! I've shown this data to hundreds of people, and most don't know what these structures are... do you?

I *see* you BSKY.
