Making the beating heart of a zebrafish embryo visible in remarkable detail might sound simple but it's actually a major breakthrough. 💙

The zebrafish heart pumps the blood around the circulatory system at a speed of three beats per second. Capturing fast and dynamic processes in living organisms in 3D like this has always been one of the biggest challenges in microscopy.

Now with the new ZEISS LSM Lightfield 4D from ZEISS Microscopy, researchers can image the fastest movements in whole organisms with all spatial and temporal information. 🔬

Happy ! 📷 Today, we celebrate the art of photography and stories behind every image.

For Ilan Derech, photography is more than just taking pictures – it's a way of life. He immerses himself in the places he visits, capturing their heartbeat through his lens and making it part of his photos.

Self-designed, self-printed: from idea to reality. 🖥️➡️🖨️

At the "A Heart for Science" workshop in the , young people experienced the complete development process from digital design to finished 3D print. By allowing the young researchers to become actively involved, they gained valuable insights into the world of STEM, especially technology. This is also the goal of the workshop and the international ZEISS initiative "A Heart for Science": to inspire children and young people in science.

The workshop, led by ZEISS employees, culminated with a visit to the Deutsches Museum, where our "Classical Optics" exhibition revealed how optical principles drive modern precision technologies like 3D printing.

Have you ever used a 3D printer, to bring one of your ideas to life?

Could cities be completely powered by hydrogen?

What could hydrogen-powered cities look like?

❌ No engine noise, no exhaust fumes
✅ Clean energy, quiet buses, green rooftops, smart grids

Hydrogen is already transforming transport, industry and energy – building a cleaner, more sustainable future.

Take a look at these -autiful images! 🐝

They are captured with an electron microscope and colorized in post-production and reveal the stunning details of one of summer's most important creatures.

Did you know that at least 30 percent of the crops we eat depend on pollination by bees? 🌼🍓 Without them, many of our favorite fruits and vegetables simply wouldn't exist.

Let's take a closer look this summer and celebrate these tiny heroes among the blooms!

Happy ! 🫶🏼

This picture shows the connections between HeLa , an eternal cell line. Stained to reveal their intricate forms (🔵DNA, 🟢microtubules and 🔴F-actin), these cellular networks remind us of something wonderfully familiar: the strong bonds of friendship. This image was captured using ZEISS Airyscan and reveals the invisible networks that connect and sustain life, while also showcasing the power of cutting-edge microscopy.

What matters most to you in your friendships?

Have you heard of the Bayer test? 🤔 It's one of the stress tests our ZEISS lenses undergo to ensure highest quality.

Picture a lens exposed to 600 shakes with a custom blend of Alundum – tiny, sharp-edged particles engineered to simulate extreme conditions during the lifetime of a lens. This high-intensity workout compares our lens with premium coating to a control lens with standard coating, testing their scratch and abrasion resistance. 🛡️

These properties are then quantified by a scattered light measurement.
Hereby, the less the light scatters, the greater the evidence for high scratch and abrasion resistance. 💡

Today is . 🤖 AI is a game-changer for many sectors and microscopy is no exception. 🔬

Sample placement, focus adjustment and identification of the relevant sample areas often require elaborate manual adjustments. The ZEISS AI Sample Finder from ZEISS Microscopy automates this sequence entirely. After just seconds, scientists can access all sample areas directly and start their experiments right away.

Take a look at how the AI Sample Finder reduces manual efforts in microscopy for swift experiment initiation. ⬇️

What happens when a chocolate praline meets CT technology? 🍫 On , we’re taking a look inside – without taking a single bite.

With non-destructive computed tomography (CT), we scan the chocolate layer by layer, revealing fine structures, tiny air pockets and what’s normally hidden deep inside.

The same technology is also used in industry, for example in e-mobility🔋 Batteries are inspected layer by layer to detect defects or irregularities without causing any damage.
