We have a great lineup this year. Master students, phds, postdocs and facility staff are welcome to sign up. We encourage people from all backgrounds interested in deepen their knowledge or starting to use light-sheet for their project. It’s always lots of fun!

[Marina Cuenca 🇦🇷 @CuencaM15]

Registrations are open for the EMBO Practical course on light sheet microscopy! Great opportunity to learn all kinds of light-sheet, as well as image postprocessing from the experts themselves.

Check out our story! From inseparable undergrads in Belgrade to PhDs scattered across the globe, FFDS (Four Friends Doing Science) kept us inspiring each other, no matter the distance.

Can you guess who’s who😆?

🔊 Exciting AI Research Opportunity! my team at @czbiohub SF is hiring a Research Scientist to develop foundational AI models for BioImage analysis. Join us to work on cutting-edge ML/CV! 💻🔬🧪🧠 #AIJobs #ML

https://t.co/BIa3VHs9kn

Think of it as a "postdoc on steroids" in AI/ML/CV. You will have access to world-class computing: one of the largest nonprofit #AI clusters (1000x H100)! , unique datasets, and an incredibly supportive collaborative environment!

[Anaïs Bailles @AnaisBailles]

Very happy to share the first article from my postdoc work in the Tomancak lab! https://t.co/0gmwblw1Wb. We studied the self-organization of actin in aggregates made from Hydra cells. Thread below (1/9)

Bruno C. Vellutini from the research group of @PavelTomancak @mpicbg wins the 14th Annual Nikon Small World in Motion Competition @NikonSmallWorld with his video of mitotic waves in the embryo of a fruit fly. Congratulations! https://t.co/8LqTQ2Bvgp

[Marina Cuenca 🇦🇷 @CuencaM15]

It was nice to be closing my stay in Dresden with a lab retreat! We've been through so much. Amazing moments to freeze in my memory and heart 💜

[Pavel Tomancak @PavelTomancak]

Fantastic lab retreat in the #Beethoven house of the #Teplice Spa, Czechia. There is a lot of interdisciplinary expertise in that picture. From evo-devo, to physics and computer science. #LoPaTs 💖

I am happy to announce I'll be joining @TalyaDayton at @EMBLBarcelona as a postdoc in January 2025. If you want to know what a physicist that loves microscopes and worked in drosophila development for the last 5 years will do in an organoids lab, stay tuned!! 2/2

[Marina Cuenca 🇦🇷 @CuencaM15]

Apparently, it is my twitter anniversary! I opened this account 6 years ago when I met @PavelTomancak at @mpicbg during a course. Since then, I moved to Germany and completed a PhD working with him, and now I am getting ready for the next adventure! 1/2
