From Turkiye’s Children’s Day to San Jordi in Catalonia, today is all about love, knowledge, and the future.
@ibecbarcelona.eu turned my microscopy image into a bookmark for the occasion🎈

23 Nisan kutlu olsun & Feliç Diada de Sant Jordi!

On my way to to the International Dutch Embryo Model Meeting 2025! 🚆
Excited to dive into the latest advances and have some great discussions.
If you’re around and curious about mechanics in development / mechanically accessible models, come find my poster!!

My image is shortlisted and will be displayed at #100Biologists! 🎉

This “Cell-estial Bloom” features LaminB-labeled cells from @alleninstitute.bsky.social glowing in all their fluorescent glory! ✨

All very incredible images—check them out and vote for your favorite (Hope it’s mine! 🤞)!

It is #FluorescenceFriday! Perfectly suited for Valentine’s Day—a 2-cell stage mouse embryo where actin staining created a heart-shaped negative space around its nucleus🔬. Captured it 4 years ago, but still one of my favorites for this time of year ❣️

No need for explosives, this year's firework show is cell-powered! 🔬💥

Check out the "fireworks" created by cells pulling on the substrate and displacing tiny beads, visualized with #3DTFM ! 🎇

Let’s make 2025 explosive with science! 👩‍🔬🎉

Happy to see the ‘Beauty and the Beast’ contest still going strong! 🎉 I couldn’t resist sharing my own ‘Beast’. 👺
I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a little scared when I first saw it in the dark microscopy room! 😅 It also made its way into lab meme culture—how could it not?

🎄 𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗕𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗟𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗮 𝗟𝗼𝘁 𝗟𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗺𝗮𝘀... 𝗨𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗽𝗲! 🔬

Why buy Christmas trees when you can "grow" one using micropatterning and @alleninstitute.bsky.social cells that come with their own LaminB1 "ornaments"?

Happy #FluorescenceFriday! ✨❄️

It is the infamous embryo from the scream!!

Are we also doing FluorecenceFriday here in bluesky??

In any case, happy fluorecence friday with my smiling experiments to you all!

Not sure if my experiment is happy to see me or it is mocking me🤔
