SLO is a beautiful place.

Another Side of Cellular Biology

So recently in my cellular biology class, we've been able to look at specific cells after staining them so that different parts of the cell will show up under different wavelengths of light.  It's called fluorescence microscopy.  So theses are some photos that my lab partner I took while observing some of our stained cells while in lab. You'll see some of the cells visualized from the same vantage point, seemingly shown twice but they will have be in a different color. This essentially allows us to distinguish between the make up of the cell: actin filaments, microtubules, genetic material, etc. 

Enjoy.

Tom's Show Us Your Tan Contest

So I entered this contest to win a $75 gift certificate for showing off your Tom's tan. I don't think I'll win anything at all but at least I'd enter, just for fun, you know... couldn't hurt.
