cells

Lots of the imaging we did in Biofrontiers was of cells.

The above images show the cytoskeleton (red) and mitochondia (green) of some bovine pulmonary artery endothelial (BPAE) cells. The first image is a large panorama created using the same SIM stitching techniques I've used in many other projects. The second image shows a zoom-in of a region in the first image, with the top half showing a conventional fluorescence microscope image and the bottom showing our superresolution processing method, MAPSIM. While this particlar sample was bought from Thermofisher, we grew our own cells too:

This particular photo is actually from a failed experiment where cells shriveled up and died while taking a timelapse of them - the colorful effect in this image comes from color-coding every frame of the timelapse and merging all the frames into one image.
