Published: July 2023

Recent advances in tissue clearing methodologies have enabled three-dimensional (3D) visualization of the ovary and, consequently, in-depth exploration of the dynamic changes occurring at the single-cell level. Here we describe methods for whole-mount immunofluorescence, clearing, imaging, and analysis of whole ovarian tissue in 3D throughout murine development and aging.

Background: Three-dimensional rotational angiography (3DRA) is a promising advancement to guide cardiac catheterizations. It is used with restraint in critically ill infants with congenital heart disease (CHD) due to the lack of research conducted within this patient group.

Methods: Data of all infants with CHD and a body weight <5 kg who underwent cardiac catheterization with the use of 3DRA between November 2011 and April 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.

The field of phenomics is experiencing unprecedented advances thanks to the rapid growth of morphological quantification based on three-dimensional (3D) imaging, online data repositories, team-oriented collaborations, and open data-sharing policies. In line with these progressions, we present an extensive primate phenotypic dataset comprising >6,000 3D scans (media) representing skeletal morphologies of 386 individual specimens covering all hominoid genera (except humans) and other selected primates. The digitized specimens are housed in physical collections at the American Museum of Natural History, the National Museum of Natural History, the Royal Museum for Central Africa (Belgium), the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, and Stony Brook University.

Hyperspectral imaging-a technique that combines the high spectral resolution of spectrophotometry with the high spatial resolution of photography-holds great promise for the study of animal coloration. However, applications of hyperspectral imaging to questions about the ecology and evolution of animal color remain relatively rare. The approach can be expensive and unwieldy, and we lack user-friendly pipelines for capturing and analyzing hyperspectral data in the context of animal color.

The transition from planar (2D) to three-dimensional (3D) magnetic nanostructures represents a significant advancement in both fundamental research and practical applications, offering vast potential for next-generation technologies like ultrahigh-density storage, memory, logic, and neuromorphic computing. Despite being a relatively new field, the emergence of 3D nanomagnetism presents numerous opportunities for innovation, prompting the creation of a comprehensive roadmap by leading international researchers. This roadmap aims to facilitate collaboration and interdisciplinary dialogue to address challenges in materials science, physics, engineering, and computing.

Article Synopsis
  • Developed an optofluidic device for high-resolution 3D imaging of NAD(P)H autofluorescence in live mouse embryos, demonstrating a proof-of-concept for safe metabolic imaging in early-stage embryos.
  • Investigated the safety and impact of the imaging process on embryo development and viability, involving 115 embryos over a 67-hour culture, alongside control conditions and assessments of blastocyst quality.
  • Used advanced microscopy techniques within a microfluidic system, utilizing UV-photolithography to integrate light-sheet fluorescence microscopy with on-chip micro-lenses to optimize the imaging of metabolic activity in early embryos.
