Structural characterization is crucial to understanding protein function. Compared with X-ray diffraction methods, electron crystallography can be performed on nanometer-sized crystals and can provide ...

A kymograph is an image that represents spatio-temporal data on a single frame instead of on an animation. You will find information about Generating and exploiting kymographs on the ImageJ tutorials.

Unlike humans, most mammals have mobile facial whiskers, yet their natural movement and function are unknown due to observational difficulties, even in well-studied terrestrial whisker specialists ...

We present LABKIT, a user-friendly Fiji plugin for the segmentation of microscopy image data. It offers easy to use manual and automated image segmentation routines that can be rapidly applied to ...

Neuronal synapses are highly dynamic communication hubs that mediate chemical neurotransmission via the exocytic fusion and subsequent endocytic recycling of neurotransmitter-containing synaptic ...

Electron tomography is used to reveal the structure of cells in three dimensions (3D). The combination with cryogenic fixation provides a snapshot in time of the living state. However, cryotomography ...

Loss of proteostasis and cellular senescence are key hallmarks of aging, but direct cause-effect relationships are not well understood. We show that most yeast cells arrest in G1 before death with low ...

For the past 25 years NIH Image and ImageJ software have been pioneers as open tools for the analysis of scientific images. We discuss the origins, challenges and solutions of these two programs, and ...
