Poster of the EM course in Naples with marine samples. The Electron Microscopy Hands-On Course: sample preparation and imaging of marine environmental samples arises from a very strong and active collaboration between the Stazione Zoologica Anton Dohrn and the EMBL in Heidelberg.
The aim of the course is to provide a theoretical and practical training on electron microscopy starting from the basics to the preparation of samples with high pressure freezing and image acquisition using TEM and SEM. — Poster of the EM course in Naples with marine samples.

Happy to announce that our #JOSS paper on #MotilA is now published 😊

MotilA is an #OpenSource #Python pipeline for quantifying microglial fine-process motility in 3D/4D in vivo multiphoton #imaging data. It is specifically designed for reproducible, batch-scale analysis.

The paper describes the methodology, implementation, and scope of the software:

Just came across #FPbase, a community-driven database for #fluorescent #proteins and #spectral properties 🌈. Very useful for selecting reporters, comparing #excitation/ #emission #spectra, planning multi-color #imaging 🔬, and avoiding spectral overlap.

🧠 New preprint by Kim et al. (2025) from David Anderson’s lab: A line #attractor maintains aggressiveness during feeding in “hangry” mice 🍔🐁. Using in vivo #CalciumImaging and #rSLDS modeling, they show how moderate fasting stabilizes an aggression-related attractor in #VMHvl, while prolonged fasting collapses it, linking hunger, motivation, and aggression through #PopulationDynamics:

Fig. 2 | Moderate fasting enhances ramping and persistence in a VMHvlEsr1 latent slow mode.

Fig. 3 | Prolonged fasting duration reveals biphasic effects on aggression and stability of VMHvlEsr1 attractor dynamics.
