#Repost @nihgov (@get_repost) ・・・ This is a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrograph of a human stem cell derived neuron. SEM micrographs are taken in a vacuum and the images allow scientists to study intricate features of microscopic organisms, surfaces and cells. This image was created by Thomas Deerinck, a scientist who works in a lab @ucsandiego funded by #NIGMS.⠀ ⠀ #microscopy #photography #ThisIsNIH #ThisIsNIGMS #neuron #cell #sciart #science #BasicResearch #lookcloser #microscopyart https://www.instagram.com/p/BnKQj_wgb9S/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4nrk2ftdt7v2
