An iPSC heart muscle cell forming sarcomeres videoed through a microscope by Emma Koory for 20 h before it dies most dramatically. This was our first try on a new microscope, and Emma now has the imaging parameters dialed in so her cells do not go POP! Alpha-actinin-2 is shown. #CellBiology

Hidden ecosystem of the ovaries plays a surprising role in fertility
A woman's fertility declines with age, which is often attributed to a fall in egg number and quality, but the environment of the ovaries themselves may also be responsible
