Optical #nanoscopy without “ON/OFF” – Scientists @Stefan_W_Hell, @thomas_hensel, and co-workers have increased the resolution in fluorescence #microscopy 🔬 by a factor of 30 without having to sequentially switch fluorescent molecules between light and dark states. ⬇️ @StefanHellLabs @mpi_mr_hd mpinat.mpg.de/4938925/pr_2502

A huge thank you to my co-authors, collaborators, and mentors who made this possible! @Stefan_W_Hell @StefanHellLabs

Obviously, this eradicates time information and any hope to observe dynamics. We solved this problem and observed multiple dyes at the same time. This not only challenges textbook knowledge, but implies interesting applications for dynamic structural biology.

No switch, no limit. We challenged the long-standing diffraction limit and optically resolved super small structures. Results now out in Nature Physics.

Frustrated with #peerreview? We propose to get the incentives right and leverage the power of #web3 to fix peer review for reliable and open science. Paper out on arxiv: arxiv.org/abs/2404.18148 #desci #OpenAccess #DecentralizedEcosystems

@Stefan_W_Hell Big thanks to my colleague Jan Otto Wirth and my supervisor @Stefan_W_Hell!

We have canceled the OFF! Unexpected super-resolution provided by a minimum #MINFLUX biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Sometimes less is more. We have found a way of diffraction-unlimited observation of (moving) point scatterers. It does not require “switching” them on/off! Big thanks to my colleague Jan Otto Wirth and my supervisor @Stefan_W_Hell.

Exciting to be part of #desci.london and discuss recent developments!
