52 hours of imaging! I'm so happy with the result. I put off doing this for a while because I was so busy. But this time I wanted to test the new microscope so thought might as well give it a go. And even though we have worked with embryos for a long time, seeing it with your own eyes how well coordinated every cell is, how they synchronise their division and then their movement, exactly the same even between embryos is still breathtaking! This is the reason why we say biological systems are robust! How signalling molecules are organised and patterned is not well understood at all.

It's also bit tricky when the embryos are 3D objects, so you can see that cells at different depth layers will be at different focuses, especially when the embryos move around too. So I had to do a z-stack and then used a small trick to stitch the different layers together hence why you may notice there's certain changes in the focus during the video.

“Human breastmilk is more than just nutrition — it’s a living, dynamic substance. Under the microscope, you’ll see fat globules suspended like tiny galaxies, immune cells moving with purpose, and complex proteins forming intricate patterns. It adapts to a baby’s needs in real-time, delivering antibodies, enzymes, and even stem cells. What looks simple on the outside is biologically brilliant up close.”

“These clips reveals the hidden complexity of breastmilk — one of the most advanced substances the human body produces.”
