See the inside of a rodent’s eye like never before alongside other commended images from the Nikon Small World Photomicrography Competition By Gege Li THIS dazzling compilation of life under the microscope showcases some of the best photos entered into 2023’s Nikon Small World Photomicrography Competition Scooping the top prize is a picture of a rat’s optic nerve head (pictured above) which is where all the retinal nerve fibres that travel to the brain pass through before forming the optic nerve The image is a powerful snapshot of the extreme intricacy of the eye’s retina both of whom are at the Lions Eye Institute in Western Australia Qambari’s research focuses on detecting and finding treatments for diabetic retinopathy, in which high blood sugar levels cause blood vessels in the back of the eye to swell and leak, resulting in blurry vision and, sometimes, blindness. Dr. Grigorii Timin & Dr. Michel Milinkovitch He said he entered the contest to showcase how complex this vascular network is. Locating the microscopic vessels was a “technically demanding challenge”, he added. Another rodent features in the photo above – of a mouse embryo – taken by Grigorii Timin and Michel Milinkovitch at the University of Geneva, Switzerland. Achieving seventh place, the picture was captured using a technique called light sheet fluorescence microscopy. Pictured above, winning an Image of Distinction award, is Sébastien Malo’s close-up of a crab spider (Thomisus onustus), the females of which can change colour between yellow, pink and white to blend in seamlessly with the flowers on which they both stalk prey and hide from predators.

light microscope,” were announced today a professional imager and core director of Baylor College of Medicine’s Optical Imaging & Vital Microscopy Core Kirk used a custom-made microscope system to take around 200 individual images of the leaf which he stacked together to create this image and vessels are all “essential to plant life,” Nikon writes fine outgrowths that protect a plant from

further growth head of route development and marketing at Aéroports de Lyon explains more about the success achieved in 2017 and its priorities for the rest of the year Lyon-Saint Exupéry handled more than ten million passengers in 2017 What was the main reason behind the growth Continued confidence by our airline partners through their increased offer in LYS More than a dozen routes have been successfully launched and many routes have been strengthened we are working to develop the accessibility to expand the LYS airport’s catchment area from 12 million inhabitants within two hours The connections by bus and TGV (28 and 27 destinations) serve the territory towards LYS We have launched a large plan to improve operational efficiency in order to offer the best service to airlines but also to our customers which are the passengers The economic sector of our region is very strong this is evident in the performance of our results https://infogram.com/lys-departure-seats-1h0r6r8k8dol4ek What are your most notable recent new routes The most notable recent new routes are Varsovia Helsinki and Pointe-à-Pitre to name a few The domestic air network departing from LYS is among the busiest in France tourism partners and others so these discussions to bear fruit Excellent knowledge of our territory and the deployment of powerful communication tools also contribute What routes are currently best performing for you It is also encouraging to see Turkey and North Africa returning after some challenging years Are there any particular geographies you are targeting The US and China are key long-haul targets not only for the airport but our regional partners too LYS-NYC is the first unserved European city in terms of passengers with more than 73,000 travelling one-way in 2017 How will the new Terminal 1 help you to achieve your ambitions Are any other infrastructure investments planned Terminal 1 will allow LYS to provide an improved customer experience and additional passenger capacity It is also a guarantee of economic performance for airlines thanks to the centralisation of operations in LYS that was not possible before the opening of the terminal Our future investments will be dedicated to developing our airport services such as a multi-storey car park in front of the new Terminal 1 We will ensure that the attrition rate is kept as low as possible and maintain what we have already achieved Top airlines from LYS in 2017 by departure seats: https://infogram.com/lys-top-airlines-1h984wx8xm0z6p3

Will PrinceContributing WriterJun 28, 2023, 7:55 PMJun 24, 2023, 10:00 AMWhen St-Jean Baptiste Day rolls around and seeds itself in every festive decoration But as much as it has become intertwined with Gallic identity the emblem's roots transcend French connection The fleur-de-lys has been used to mark kings and prisoners and its origins can be traced all the way back to the pre-Roman Bronze Age Mesopotamian fish god Dagon (2000 B.C.E.) with a fleur-de-lys helmet. Right: Aztec god Quetzalcoatl (1500 C.E.) with a fleur-de-lys headdress.Etc.usf.edu Before adorning the Quebec flag, known as the "Fleurdelisé," the symbolic flower graced the artwork of diverse cultures spanning thousands of years Its earliest known depictions date back to 14th-century B.C.E Its influence spread across civilizations, from Egypt and Greece to India and Japan It can make an appearance on kimonos during the May 5 festivities in Japan when children bathe in iris-infused water to ward off evil spirits A purple iris.

The trend has really been reversed,” Jean-Louis Desjoyaux of Piscines Desjoyaux told Franceinfo The public desire for a private pool has been fuelled by the Covid lockdowns and by the hotter summers brought by climate change while these facilities help humans to cope with the effects of global warming they do not help to prevent its progression A 20m2 pool heated by a pump creates 250kg of CO2 each year the same as a return flight between Paris and Marseille The rise in the number of private pools also adds strain to water resources increasing a household’s consumption by 10-15% ‘I get €3,000 a year’: Heatwave sees spike in garden rentals in France How much value will a swimming pool add to my French house?
