In vitro<\/i> disease modelling opens the door to the development of strategies for the treatment and prevention of these diseases where early diagnosis is crucial. The photograph was obtained with a confocal microscope (Leica TCS – SP5), using a 20x lens.<\/p>\n
\u00abArt- zheimer Brain\u00bb, the image awarded with the second prize \u2013the photography book ‘Magnum, Magnum<\/i>‘ edited by Lunwerg\u2013 shows the brain of a mouse brain affected by Alzheimer’s disease. In order to see inside, the brain was dehydrated with methanol and made optically transparent. Images were acquired using a light plane that was swept on the brain from different angles. The device used is the MacroSPIM, a last-generation system built at the Advanced Digital Microscopy Scientific Platform at IRB Barcelona that allows acquiring 3D images of whole organs (not dissected). Labeled areas correspond to: Alzheimer’s plaques in white, blood vessels and tissue contour coded in different colors depending on how deep they are located within the brain. The samples were provided by researchers Enrico Radaelli and Sebastian Munck, from KU Leuven.<\/p>\n
Forty three photographs, taken by personnel from the different research institutes, companies, technology platforms and other organizations located within the Parc Cient\u00edfic de Barcelona, were submitted to the call. The three other finalists were: \u00abEclipse\u00bb by Maria Marsal, IBMB-CSIC researcher; \u00abOn the Groove\u00bb by Daniel Blasi, researcher at the PCB Drug Discovery Platform; and \u00abHeart Galaxy\u00bb by Claudia Di Guglielmo, researcher at IBEC. <\/p>\n
All submitted photographs will be displayed on plasma screens at the reception areas of the Cluster and the Torres R+I+D building.<\/p>\n
