Computational methods for live heart imaging with speed-constrained microscopes

Olivia Mariani

Imaging methods to capture the beating and developing heart inside embryonic animal models such as the zebrafish are a key component for the study of fundamental biological processes such as cardiac birth defects or tissue regeneration. However, live heart ...

Weakly Supervised Deep Learning Methods for Biomicroscopy

Adrian Shajkofci

Optical microscopy, an invaluable tool in biology and medicine to observe and quantify cellular function, organ development, or disease mechanisms, requires constant trade-offs between spatial, temporal, and spectral resolution, invasiveness, acquisition t ...

Additive manufacturing of a precious bulk metallic glass

Jamasp Jhabvala, Güven Kurtuldu, Antonia Neels, Roland Logé, Navid Sohrabi, Annapaola Parrilli

For the first time, a high-density amorphous and crack-free bulk metallic glass (BMG) based on a precious metal (PdCuNiP) was produced via additive manufacturing (AM). Laser powder-bed fusion (LPBF) was used for the fabrication of the samples, and led to a ...

Estimating Nonplanar Flow from 2D Motion-blurred Widefield Microscopy Images via Deep Learning

Michael Stefan Daniel Liebling, Adrian Shajkofci

Optical flow is a method aimed at predicting the movement velocity of any pixel in the image and is used in medicine and biology to estimate flow of particles in organs or organelles. However, a precise optical flow measurement requires images taken at hig ...

Systematic Tuning of Rhodamine Spirocyclization for Super-resolution Microscopy

Kai Johnsson, Lu Wang

Rhodamines are the most important class of fluorophores for applications in live-cell fluorescence microscopy. This is mainly because rhodamines exist in a dynamic equilibrium between a fluorescent zwitterion and a nonfluorescent but cell-permeable spirocy ...

Structured light generation by refractive-diffractive micro optical array illuminators

Maryam Yousefi

Structured light generation having broad applications in different optical fields, is the topic of this thesis. Our structured light generation strategy is based on applying periodic microoptical elements at the refraction-diffraction limit, under a focuse ...

Optical diffraction tomography from single-molecule localization microscopy

Michaël Unser, Thanh-An Michel Pham, Ferréol Arnaud Marie Soulez, Emmanuel Emilien Louis Soubies

Single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) is a powerful method for the imaging of cellular structures. This modality delivers nanoscale resolution by sequentially activating a subset of fluorescent molecules and by extracting their super-resolved posi ...

Quantum dynamics in individual surface spins

Tobias Bilgeri

This thesis presents a combined experimental and theoretical study of the classical and quantum magnetization dynamics in single magnetic adatoms and molecules, and on the classical and quantum coherent control thereof. First, a detailed description of t ...

Correlative 3D microscopy of single cells using super-resolution and scanning ion-conductance microscopy

Aleksandra Radenovic, Adrien Charles-François Raymond Descloux, Georg Fantner, Samuel Mendes Leitão, Kristin Stefanie Grussmayer, Barney Frederick Drake, Vytautas Navikas

High-resolution live-cell imaging is necessary to study complex biological phenomena. Modern fluorescence microscopy methods are increasingly combined with complementary, label-free techniques to put the fluorescence information into the cellular context. ...

Organisation and dynamics of mitochondria and their RNA

Timo Henry René Rey

The organisation of molecules into dynamic cells, and collaboration of many of those cells over a billion years led to the evolution of human life. During the last century, biologists then began to unravel the marvels of cellular organisation with ever inc ...
