Our work now on its final version. We mapped the mechanical properties of roots at tissue and single cell levels using Brillouin microscopy and molecular rotors. Additional mutants and stress measurements from what we previously showed in the preprint are included.

Sounds promising, congrats!
Very interesting paper using the well-known Sandercock TFP design and adapting it to accommodate full field imaging, certainly worth a read!
Deadline extended ‼️
The abstract submission deadline of the 9th International BioBrillouin Meeting (Berlin, 25-27 Nov 2025) is now extended to Oct 7, 2025.
Don't forget to submit your contribution: www.biobrillouin25.com
Looking forward to seeing you in Berlin!

How many photons are in a GFP? — more than last year, and more than you thought. Here's a simple, cheap, and practical method to break a fundamental limit in fluorescence microscopy. But it only works in light sheet!
One of the key aspects influencing morphogenesis is mechanics. We mapped the mechanical properties of living roots at the tissue and cellular levels using Brillouin microscopy and molecular rotors.

I have thought about it as well. On the one hand, people can be better integrated into a partly commercial system. On the other hand, if you build it yourself, you also have to worry about problems that you didn't have to worry about before. 😅
🚨 PhD Opportunity Alert! 🚨 I'm thrilled to announce my new project, Watchers on the Wall, exploring how plant cells sense and respond to stress through their walls. 🌱 A 5-year fully funded PhD position is open—please share with potential candidates! 👇 (1/7)
