The Dudin lab and their expansion visitors having some well deserved friday drinks and games

A group of visitors in their lab coats busily working to get their cells and tissues expanded, stained and ready for microscopy

Over the last two weeks the Dudin Lab expanded two-fold and it’s been a blast!
We are hosting a group of amazing visitors that stopped by with their own species and samples to get started with expansion microscopy.
It was a ton of fun, very much looking forward to pictures to come ❤️

Check out that spindle 🤩🔥

At 63C, most eukaryotic cells would be busy exploding noisily, forget even trying to divide.

The microbial universe never ceases to astound 😍

Thanks for letting us be a tiny part of this! #ExpandThemAll

We will be at @ccapoban.bsky.social in stunning Oban for the next two weeks fixing samples from their remarkable collection for #ExAME - thank you Ceci Mikey Jo Naomi and everyone at SAMS for the warm Scottish welcome ❤️

Trip 3 and past the 100 species count! Thank you for hosting us in České Budějovice Julius and Galina (and everyone providing samples!), for the prime support, and a fantastic selection of cultures!
