Live-cell imaging under centrifugation characterized the cellular force for nuclear centration in the Caenorhabditis elegans embryo

The paper measures cellular forces for nuclear centration in C. elegans embryos using centrifugation and microscopy, finding forces increase linearly with distance and friction is reduced in microtubule mutants.

Orientation-Independent-DIC imaging reveals that a transient rise in depletion force contributes to mitotic chromosome condensation

The paper uses OI-DIC imaging to show that a transient increase in depletion force, caused by macromolecular crowding, contributes to mitotic chromosome condensation in human cells.

Unclearing Microscopy

This paper introduces a new microscopy technique called Unclearing Microscopy that allows visualization of subcellular structures with the unaided eye by expanding cells and opaquing them with light-scattering molecules.
