Dorsal root ganglion nerve cells stained to reveal the microtubules (green) and actin filaments (red). The axon shaft contains bundles of microtubules that give structural support and carry cargo (pro...

Fluorescent micrograph of rat embryo fibroblast cell growing in serum stained to reveal actin stress fibres (red) and vinculin (component of focal adhesions) in green/yellow.

Timelapse of dorsal side during gastrulation shows migration of hypoblast and underlying yolk syncytial layer (YSL) nuclei (larger bright spots). The prechordal plate can be seen as a more clumped mas...

Timelapse of dorsal yolk syncytial layer (YSL) nuclei and blastoderm morphogenesis from sphere stage (late blastula) to 1 somite stage. Top panel shows Nomarski movie of blastoderm morphogenesis inclu...

A 4D visualization of zebrafish somitogenesis and neural keel formation. The Quicktime movie shows progressively dorsal optical sections in a segmenting embryo. Note the midline alignment of neuroepit...

Scanning EM of a 24 hr (prim-5) Zebrafish embryo, fractured to reveal the neural tube, notochord and anterior faces of the myotomes. Specimens were chemically fixed critically point dried, and spu...

Scanning EM of the head folds. Specimens were chemically fixed critically point dried, and sputter coated with gold/palladium. This image is part of a series taken by Bryan Crawford while he was at ...

Fluorescence image of bodies and axons of the mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus in a 4 day old chick embryo. The trigeminal nucleus is made up of scattered neurons along the midline of the optic tectum...

Confocal micrograph of a transverse section of the brain of a zebrafish embryo, at the level of the hindbrain. The brain section was stained using an antibody that marks a calcium binding protein (cal...

Confocal micrograph of the head region of a transgenic zebrafish embryo. The large circular structure is the eye, showing the structure of the retina. Some neurons in the brain are highlighted in gre...
