GANscan: continuous scanning microscopy using deep learning deblurring
Most whole slide imaging (WSI) systems today rely on the "stop-and-stare" approach, where, at each field of view, the scanning stage is brought to a complete stop before the camera snaps a picture. This procedure ensures that each image is free of motion

Density fluctuations, homeostasis, and reproduction effects in bacteria
Single-cells grow by increasing their biomass and size. Here, we report that while mass and size accumulation rates of single Escherichia coli cells are exponential, their density and, thus, the levels of macromolecular crowding fluctuate during growth. A
