Now, in a recently published Journal of Cell Biology paper, scientists used a newer electron microscopy technique, called volume electron microscopy (vEM), to examine how primary cilia on developing ...

A new PNAS study examined primary cilia in human islet cells using a multi-scale surface scanning electron microscope approach to obtain a three-dimensional (3D) image of their architecture.

Collectively called volume electron microscopy, or volume EM, these methods use electron microscopes to image thin layers of a specimen and then stitch the layers together to create ultra high ...

Date: November 16, 2021 Time: 10:00am PDT In this talk I will show how the power of modern electron microscopy (EM) techniques, coupled with light microscopy and expansion methods, can open. ... While ...

Cilia depend on their highly differentiated structure, ... Electron micrograph (bar = 3 μm) displaying a spherical aggregation at the mid-developing stage, enclosing a small hollow core.

Cilia's secrets revealed using connectome data Date: January 15, 2025 Source: Howard Hughes Medical Institute Summary: By reexamining 3D images used to map the connections between brain cells ...

Cilia, the little "hairs" attached to almost all cells of the human body, ... and colleagues from the FMI Structural Biology platform used cryogenic-Electron Microscopy ...

He used focused ion beam-scanning electron microscopy to visualize these structures. No, we don’t have a ‘lizard brain’ Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research used comparative ...
