Do you have a confocal microscope in your lab? Then you can perform 1-nm single-molecule localizations in it with only a few modifications. We present #RASTMIN, an alternative to #MINFLUX that can be easily implemented in existing confocal setups. 1/6 nature.com/articles/s4137…

El 17/12 se llevó a cabo la defensa de mí tesis doctoral en física en @Exactas_UBA . Le agradezco a @FernaStefani y a todo el @FerStefaniLab por estos años de intenso trabajo y dedicación en @cibionconicet. ¡Aguante la ciencia argentina y la universidad pública!

Fallo de la Cámara favorable a Raicyt! El Estado tendrá que presentar la documentación relacionada con el financiamiento, que viene negando. Seguimos defendiendo el sistema científico tecnológico!

📢New post on FocalPlane Lucía Lopez @luhalac1 @FerStefaniLab describes the federal super-resolution network in Argentina sharing their aims, what they have achieved so far and what they are planning for 2026. focalplane.biologists.com/2025/12/04/fed…

(8/8) We believe this system can democratize sub-10 nm super-resolution imaging. A collaborative effort from teams in Argentina, Germany and Switzerland. Read the full open-access paper here: nature.com/articles/s4137… #OpenScience #Nanoscopy #SuperResolution #Microscopy #MINFLUX

(7/8) We want this to be adopted widely. Everything is open-source: 💻 Software (Takyaq) on GitHub: github.com/Stefani-Lab/ta… Build it, adapt it, improve it for your lab’s needs!

Open-Source Sub-nm Stabilization for Super-Resolution Microscopy🔬 (1/8) 🧵 Excited to share our new open-source stabilization system for single-molecule imaging! We’ve developed a modular, affordable 3D stabilization system that achieves sub-nm precision.

We are delighted to announce that our PI Prof. Fernando Stefani, has joined the Editorial Board of Light: Science & Applications (@LightSciAppl)! He will serve as an Editor for: Biophotonics Nano-photonics Optical Imaging and Spectroscopy A great honor and recognition!

We are seeking assistance in locating a missing researcher in Germany. If anyone is based in Germany or has contacts in the area who might be able to help, please get in touch as soon as possible. Any information or support you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
