I was today years old when I learned that *Drosophila husbandry* was actually a skillset to add to a cell/developmental biology resume. I wonder if I should add Arabidopsis husbandry to mine 😆

Hey #pollen people! @theobrominated.bsky.social would like to know which species these mixed pollen grains are from, and I admit except for pine and lily, I'm not sure. Would anyone be able to help?

Trying the @zeiss-microscopy.bsky.social LSM 980 with lightfield at my core. I’m very curious about the performance of the lightfield 👀
