Since its inception, fluorescence imaging has revolutionised biological research, providing an invaluable tool for scientists to explore and visualise cellular structures and processes at a microscopic scale.
The RMS would like to thank everyone who attended elmi2024 in Liverpool (4 – 7 June), for making it such a special event for the Light Microscopy community.
Optical microscopy has used the same manufacturing methods for milling and sanding glass elements to produce high-quality optics for over a century. Recent developments in 3D printing have opened the possibility of printing optical components, but the surface quality of these 3D prints remains unknown.
Brightfield microscopy has been a viable observation technique for cytology and histological analysis employing stained cells and tissue sections mounted on a microscope slide.
