  • Super-Resolution Single Molecule Localization

    The Lew lab is creating technology to image multidimensional trajectories of individual molecules in time and space, with one focus on understanding the structural dynamics of amyloid aggregation in diseases like Alzheimer’s.In collaboration with Jan Bieschke, UCL, the lab has developed a single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) technique called TAB, transient amyloid binding, to image the structure of amyloid protein aggregates over periods of hours to days.

  • diSPIM Light-Sheet

    Prof. Matthias Weiss and PhD student Ivana Jeremic research challenging problems at the interface of physics and biology, focusing on understanding self-organization processes in living organisms.

  • Dual-Color Voltage Imaging

    Dr. Davide Raccuglia and his team use the model organism Drosophila melanogaster (colloquially known as fruit fly) to study how the brain regulates sleep. Dr. Raccuglia told us more about his research, “What I’m particularly interested in is the functional neural architecture of sensory gates for sleep regulation.

  • Structured Illumination Microscopy (SIM)

    Dr. Guy Hagen, Research Associate from the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs creates high performance image reconstruction methods and open-source software to process super-resolution microscopy data. In 2014 Dr. Hagen released ThunderSTORM, an ImageJ plug-in for automated processing of photo-activated localization microscopy (PALM) and stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy (STORM) data.1

  • Super-Resolution Microscopy at University of California, Berkeley

    The Ke Xu Group at the University of California Berkeley, College of Chemistry is an interdisciplinary lab that combines biophysics, physical chemistry and cell biology. Their goal is to understand how orders emerge in biological systems at the nano-meter scale from the interaction between biomolecules.
