Any idea what this algae or plant is? It forms green films on top if a nearby pond. Under the scope it forms largish clumps or sacks of cells- maybe 50-100 um or so across. Seems too large for most algae and too small for plants like duckweed. I've never come across it before, and I'd be curious to get an ID if anyone knew!

Wonderful discovery for #protists #independentresearch #microscopy #microbiology folks. Check out a new zine called "Amoeba Discovery":

I never thought very much about protists/amoebas, and reading this volume was a fascinating introduction to what seems to be an understudied field.

Now I'm wondering how I might isolate and sequence some interesting samples!

Maybe some Gonium and Dinobryon, among other algae?

Advanced genetic techniques and microscopy offer new insights into anaerobic ciliate and methanogen symbiosis

A recent study has uncovered critical details about the association between anaerobic ciliates and methanogenic archaea, a relationship that has fascinated scientists for over decades.

🎨 🧬 Take a look at the extraordinary watercolor paintings in the Molecular Landscapes Gallery by David S. Goodsell.

The watercolor paintings of David S. Goodsell integrate information from #StructuralBiology, #Microscopy and #Biophysics to simulate detailed views of the molecular structure of living cells. #Proteins, #NucleicAcids, and #LipidMembranes are shown; #SmallMolecules, ions, and water are omitted for clarity.

Scales on the abaxial frond surface of a herbarium specimen of Asplenium ceterach. This small fern lives on rocks and in the mortar lines of brick walls in Eurasia. The scales presumably prompted the common name 'rustyback' and help with what is unusual drought tolerance for a #fern. #microscopy #photography #botany

Hi all,
I am a Group Leader at HHMI Janelia Research Campus, working on the systems #neuroscience of flexible behavior and #learning, #brain-body communication, #microscopy, #computation, #astrocytes, and large #networks.

We enjoy collaborating, including with computational neuroscientists who want to take a look at whole-brain neuron + behavior data! Get in touch 😀
