🔬🚀 It's out! Run 100s of imaging experiments before touching a microscope. #VLab4Mic reproduces them in silico from PDB/AlphaFold to help you image right first time. From rockstars @JDamianMtzR & @Bruno_MSaraiva, inaugural preprint of @_mariod's new lab biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

🚀📷 What can cell shape, signal and movement tell us about a cell's future? #DeepLearning now predicts cell fate from #Microscopy. Work with Rita,@_mariod, @inesmcunha, Juliette + Guillaume👇 preprints.org/manuscript/202…

Bonjour Curie!

Timely callout to #RxivMaker. With rxiv-maker you write in Markdown and the tool generates the LaTeX, so author comments and to-do notes never reach the source files you upload to arXiv. Built it for easy writing with amazing formatting, avoiding this leak is welcome side effect

Can your microscope resolve the structure you want to study before you run the experiment? New #bioRxiv preprint: VLab4Mic predicts structural resolvability in #SuperResolution microscopy, helping choose modality and probe. Great work from @HenriquesLab. @RTsuperES ; @EUeic @JDamianMtzR biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

🔬🚀 Updated #VLab4Mic preprint. Rebuilt the clathrin models from full-length triskelions, dome+flat lattice toy simulations share a common motif. Wanna see how it looks across microscopy methods? (Thank you for the advice Stephane Vassilopoulos) biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

🔬🌟 Join us for SMLMS2026 in Stockholm! 🔬🌟 We’re excited to welcome the advanced light microscopy community to Stockholm August 26–28 2026. Check out our fantastic speaker line-up and register here: smlms.org 🚨Only 2 weeks left for abstract submission 🚨

And it is out!!!🚨 Very excited to be sharing SMLMFlow. It has been a fantastic journey with @sebjbauer and a great opportunity to work with old friends😜Daniel Sage and Ruby Peters.

#ELMI2026 is starting =). Come say hi!!

🔬🚀 Preprint update for #VLab4Mic - our super-resolution experiments virtual simulation system. Now installs as a one-click desktop app: no Python, no setup, thanks to the magic of the Jacquemet's lab #LabConstrictor packaging engine biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

Congrats to @JDamianMtzR on the preprint release of his project #VLab4Mic, a tool able to virtually predict whether a biological structure will be resolved by a chosen microscopy or labeling.🎉 Congrats @Bruno_MSaraiva @_mariod @HenriquesLab Read at: shorturl.at/vnQy1

Can microscopy distinguish a flat from a domed clathrin lattice? VLab4Mic predicts: ❌ Confocal ❌ AiryScan ✅ STED ✅ SMLM A simple example of how simulation can guide modality selection before spending microscope time

Workflow: 🧬 Import structure 🏷️ Choose labelling strategy 🎲 Simulate realistic stochastic labelling 🔬 Generate virtual images for Widefield, Confocal, AiryScan, STED and SMLM Helping researchers test experiments before collecting data vlab4mic.henriqueslab.org

Resolution isn't just optics. Structural resolvability also depends on probe size, linkage error, labelling efficiency, steric hindrance and, molecular organisation. VLab4Mic models all of these starting from PDB or AlphaFold structures

Our preprint is out!! We present VLab4Mic, a platform that predicts structural resolvability for diverse biological structures before any experiments!! biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

@Mech_Morph_Lab @_mariod @JDamianMtzR @Bruno_MSaraiva @wmarkbates @christlet @T_Shakespeare Thank you Elias =), um grande abraço!

@_mariod @JDamianMtzR @Bruno_MSaraiva @HenriquesLab @wmarkbates @christlet @T_Shakespeare Congratulations to you all!!!

How do you know if a microscopy experiment can actually resolve a biological structure? Introducing VLab4Mic, a platform that predicts structural resolvability before you go to the microscope Led by @JDamianMtzR and @Bruno_MSaraiva at @HenriquesLab biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

This closes a loop we opened with #NanoJSQUIRREL (@SuperResoluSian et al., 2018), which mapped where super-resolution images go wrong relative to a reference. #VLab4Mic comes at it from the other end: predicting what's resolvable from known atomic structure before you even image

Huge thank you to the labs of @christlet, Dylan Owen and Mark Bates, and to @T_Shakespeare, who helped us make it happen. #VLab4Mic also heavily uses data from RCSB PDB, Jonas Ries & Justin Taraska's labs
