We're thrilled to announce our latest publication on optimization of X-ray micro-CT settings. We provide a starting point for anyone new to X-ray 3D virtual histology on FFPE blocks, which is also useful for more experienced users.

Thrilled about our @acsnano paper pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
We delved into quantifying & controlling lipid-polymer-DNA assembly. More than the science, it marks a farewell to my fantastic team at @INLnano & a warm welcome at @Empa_CH. Thanks @Nano_boticario for all the dedication!
Check out our newest review on novel methods (like #SAXS, #SANS and Mössbauer spectroscopy) to fully characterize the 3D structure of iron carbohydrate #nanoparticles - formulations which are used to treat iron deficiency #anaemia.
