Imaging the orientation of biological structures in depth: P-SHG microscopy

Alban Belloir — Tue, 14 Nov 2023 15:02:00 +0000

A key property of the human cornea is to maintain its curvature and consequently its refraction capability. Although we know that it is related to its stacked collagen lamellae structure, the distribution, size, and orientation of these lamellae along the depth of the cornea are poorly characterized up to now. A team from the Laboratory …

Principles and applications of fluorescence microscopy

Alban Belloir — Mon, 06 Nov 2023 09:53:22 +0000

The use of fluorescence microscopy (wide field, confocal, multiphoton, and now superresolution) in combination with genetically encoded fluorescence probes comprise a powerful set of scientific tools to study live cells. However, surprising little practical and theoretical training in such methods exists within standard curricula, particular at the early stage of training (Masters or Doctorate level). …
