With the dawn on #engineering at #KeeleUniversity we're also seen interest in #biomechanics. One example being Hector Allen's project which is using a novel combination of #microCT density analysis and #3Dscanning to reconstruct joints of the deceased from their #SkeletalRemains. Amazing stuff!

A new installation of #InsideTheFSBI! We hear from FSBI PhD Student, Rebecca Bentley, who is based at the University of Bristol. Rebecca talks about her work on jaw shape in armoured #catfish and how it links to #ecological factors like diet, but constrained by #phylogenetics. Some amazing #microCT!
#microCT scan of the left palpal bulb (male copulatory organ) of a grass spider I found wandering Beckman's hallways last week! 😍(He was on his last legs when he was preserved for the scan). Taken in the Microscopy Suite of @beckmanillinois.bsky.social and rendered in the Visualization Lab.
🍺 It’s Oktoberfest, so let's look inside beer foam! Non-destructive imaging like this is key for food science and helps us understand how structure and stability affect things like aroma and taste.

What’s the first thing you think of when you hear microCT?
Probably bones, right? But with contrast agents, we can also reveal the hidden architecture of soft tissues, like the brain.

Calling all #ParasiticPlants enthusiasts, especially the fans of #endoparasites: our recent paper on #Pilostyles will be under free open access for 2 weeks!
We combine #PlantAnatomy, development, and #microCT to provide insights into the physiology, sexual system, and ecology of these strange plants

Last week doctoral researcher Sophie Anuth, co-supervised by @xploraytion Berlin, presented her project on high resolution #synchrotron #microCT & #nanoCT of mineralized tissue at the Berlin School for Regenerative Therapies @ChariteBerlin. Congratulations!
A #microscopy mystery for #3DThursday!🌾 What is this? 🔍 Things that I know: it is a #plant, it was imaged on a Lumafield #microCT, and the color is a LUT (look up table) that I applied in #syGlass and has nothing to do with the organism (microCT comes in as grayscale). Help! #SciComm

🚨 New paper alert!
And this is special because it has been in the pipeline for 5 years. We used #microCT scanning to show that, despite their minute vegetative body, #ParasiticPlants like #Pilostyles form an extensive colony within the host bark.

Whoa! so many CT scans! I do scans on a smaller #microCT scale. I have hundreds of models, but took the website offline temporarily due to copyright issues. It'll be back online this summer. Here's an example: a Globorotalia scitula planktic foraminifera - on the order of maybe 200-300 microns.
