Fluorescence micrograph showing the cross-section of bulrush (Juncus sp.) leaf, autofluorescing red (chlorophyll on external side of leaf) and blue (vascular bundles). The diameter of the stalk is ap...

A colorized SEM image of a human proximal tubule, showing the tubular structure and projections extending over the tissue surface.

Video of zebrafish embryo development from a 2-cell egg to fish larva. Images were collected using confocal microscopy. Honorable Mention, 2011 Olympus BioScapes Digital Imaging Competition®.

Fluorescence micrograph of a neuron regenerating in culture. Honorable Mention, 2006 Olympus BioScapes Digital Imaging Competition.

Figs. 311 & 312 from Don Fawcett's Chapter 12 (Centrioles). In ciliogenesis, newly formed single centrioles, serving as basal bodies, are arranged in rows and oriented perpendicular to the cell surfac...

Scanning electron microscope image of Penta lanceolata anther (pollen bearing part of stamen).

Arabidopsis thaliana (thale cress) embryos imaged with confocal microscopy. Honorable Mention, 2009 Olympus BioScapes Digital Imaging Competition®.

Human primary keratinocyte spreading on an asymmetric "arc"-shaped collagen I micropattern. The cells are stained for the focal adhesion protein vinculin (green, Alexa488), F-Actin (red, TRITC phallo...

This colorized scanning electron micrograph shows the structure of osteocyte cells in the cortex of a mouse tibia bone. Osteocytes are the cells that form new bone. Imbedding the bone in resin, which ...

Confocal image of "Brainbow" mouse cerebral cortex. In Brainbow mice, neurons randomly choose combinations of red, yellow and cyan fluorescent proteins, so that they each glow a particular color. Thi...
