Defining the cellular road map
Affiliation:
ESRIC
Description:
The image shows a single slice of a kidney cell that has been stained with a red dye so that we can see the cell's internal network, a fibre called Actin, on which objects are transported across the cell. The top half of the image shows how advanced super-resolution microscopy techniques can reveal more about these networks.
Equipment used:
Leica Microsystems SP5 SMD gated-STED microscope (laser scanning confocal microscope)
