I've weened myself down to 3 a day...

Underway with the @nesmicroscopy.bsky.social Spring Symposium - Not too late to register and join us on the Zoom www.nesmicroscopy.org/2025-spring-... we have some amazing work still to come as well as our career panel, the tour the core and vendor presentation! #microscopy

Excited to have @katrinavelle.bsky.social as our second keynote speaker. You all should check out the Velle Lab website for some beautiful sci-art posters! Also, join us at the virtual Spring Symposium - It's FREE and open to all! shorturl.at/zse9P

We also confirmed our final keynote speaker @katrinavelle.bsky.social and we are really excited to see and learn all about the "brain eating amoeba"! Our careers in microscopy panel is also taking shape @bioimagingna.bsky.social #microscopy

Just over 24 hours until the abstract deadline for the @nesmicroscopy.bsky.social Spring Symposium which is taking place virtually on April 25th. shorturl.at/040Hh If you have a topic that our community would enjoy please submit an abstract! Shares appreciated!

This year's spring symposium is virtual! Come and join us if you're enthusiastic about imaging and see some great science. Learn about new ways to image or apply imaging technologies. We also want to hear about your research or technology so please submit an abstract! Sharing is greatly appreciated

Excited teach & help w/BoBiAC! This course is perfect for grad students & postdocs using fluorescence microscopy to learn how to use python to process & analyze image data! Best part: it's beginner friendly - no python experience required! More info & apply: iac.hms.harvard.edu/bobiac/2025/...

NESM is a great local society and we are hoping to engage more with our fellow New England microscopists and the global imaging community at large! Please share your images with us so that we can spread the microscopy love!

This is awesome Heather! That's thousands of hours across probably a lot of diverse instruments! Without dedicated centers for training how could the same breadth of techniques be offered efficiently?! Over 2 sessions per working day while having to do another job? Love this data
