No tricks, just brains in 3D 🧠🧟♂️
This cleared human brain slice (~10×7×0.3 cm) was imaged at 0.17 µm/pixel on the 3Di HOTLS lightsheet microscope. Sharp, transparent, undead-level perfection (Alpenglow Biosciences).

🕷️ Apologies in advance…
This fungus, Gibellula attenboroughii, turns spiders into zombies, taking over their nervous system and forcing them into the open before they die and spread spores. Found in 2021 in County Down. (National Trust)

✨ #FluorescenceFriday meets 3D Spatial Biology! Using computational H&E on our 3Di platform, we map NSCLC biopsies from tissue to subcellular scale, revealing hidden TLS 200 µm deep(by Alpenglow Biosciences)
🚀 3D imaging = unbiased counts + richer immune insights.
