Self-blinking dye restores efficient use of nanobodies in single-molecule localization microscopy

Authors Basak S, Inamdar K, Pollack YG, Albert L, Jans DC, Jakobs S, Enderlein J, Tsukanov R, Opazo F Journal BioRxiv Citation bioRxiv 2025.12.17.694880 Abstract Direct STORM relies on robust fluorophore blinking; observations suggest that AlexaFluor647 underperforms when coupled to nanobodies, thereby undermining the advantages of nanobodies. We show that

Computer-generated image of a human placenta, measured using virtual 3D histology. Any cross-sectional images can be superimposed on the organ virtually in high resolution. This allows the length scales of anatomy and histology to be linked and the entire organ to be examined for abnormalities in tissue architecture, for example. Photo: J. Reichmann et al., PNAS Nexus 2025.

A testing paradox for sexually transmitted infections

For several years, pre-exposure prophylaxis against HIV (PrEP) has been a major success in preventing new cases. However, individuals on PrEP typically engage in riskier sexual behavior and thus are more susceptible to acquiring other sexually transmitted infections (STIs). To counteract this, people on PrEP have to regularly take mandatory

Optimizing infectious disease mitigation under dynamic conditions

Authors Müller L, Sartori F, Dehning J, Eggl MF, Priesemann V Journal Arxiv Citation arXiv:2512.11454. Abstract Mitigation measures are essential for controlling the spread of infectious diseases during pandemics and epidemics, but they impose considerable societal, individual, and economic costs. We developed a general optimization framework to balance costs related

Distributional limits of graph cuts on discretized grids

Authors Suchan L, Li H, Munk A Journal Electronic Journal of Statistics Citation Electron. J. Statist. 19(2): 5925-5978 (2025). Abstract Graph cuts are among the most prominent tools for clustering and classification analysis. While intensively studied from geometric and algorithmic perspectives, graph cut-based statistical inference still remains elusive to a

Research highlight: new and powerful approach to wide-field fluorescence lifetime imaging with single-molecule sensitivity

Authors Enderlein J Journal eLight Citation eLight 5, 34 (2025). Abstract Historically constrained by the low throughput of traditional Time-Correlated Single-Photon Counting (TCSPC), a new method utilizes an optimized, time-gated single-photon camera acquisition scheme for achieving single-molecule lifetime precision comparable to TCSPC, but across a wide field of view simultaneously.
