Nikon is reviewing its Small World In Motion competition's winning entry after a photographer was accused of using AI to generate images. The photographer claims AI was only used for post-processing to distinguish structures. #microscopy #News
Spent the evening with the #microscope, got some nice shots of #VenusFlytrap digestive glands and trigger hairs. The red pigment on their leaf starts in the digestive glands and spreads outward. The glands are circular blobs.

Calling all microscopists: anyone have light-blocking curtains around their scopes in an open lab space? My lab is super bright, and the room the scopes could've gone in is going to house jerboas! Working with facilities/safety of course, but would love to see photos of setups that work! #microscopy

Drawing of some diatoms I saw under the microscope a while ago

A living sea urchin larva, Arbacia punctulata, under a polychromatic polarizing microscope.
Its calcite skeletal rods are birefringent. Here the hue encodes their slow-axis orientation, so the rods change color as the larva turns. No stains
