✨ Big News ✨We’re launching a new research hub in Chicago.
#CZBiohubCHI will bring together scientists + engineers at @UChicago, @NorthwesternU & @UofIllinois to build new tech + gain insights into how inflammation impacts our cells
Breakthroughs in imaging technology have allowed us to watch biology in action to amazing extents.
Learn how @cziscience is pushing the frontiers of imaging ⬇️
New imaging technologies could allow researchers to
👀See the building blocks of life
👤Deep inside the body
⏱️In real time
🔎And with unprecedented detail
Watch how we're pushing the frontiers of imaging science
Since the invention of the microscope in 1595, researchers & clinicians can now
🔸 View the inner workings of living cells
🔸 Pinpoint broken bones + tumors
🔸 See inside lungs to diagnose disease
But we can still push the frontiers of imaging. Here’s how ⤵️
Big news: We’re funding 30 patient-led organization to support their launch of #RareDisease research networks in their search for treatment options #RareAsOneczi.co/RareAsOneNetwo…
“As a gay Latino man, I have felt isolation + numerous occasions of discrimination that exacerbated my imposter syndrome. This is why I have made it my mission to ensure every person who wants to practice science feels welcome, included & valued.” 🙌🏾🙌🏿🙌🏻

AI is catalyzing scientific discovery into health and disease.
To accelerate progress, we’re building one of the world’s largest computing systems dedicated to non-profit life science research that we’ll leverage to create predictive models of whole cells
This is what it looks like when cells divide. Imagine what insights we could gain about health and disease if researchers could watch this process in real time in the body at a higher resolution #CellBiology#Imaging
Every 4 minutes, someone new is diagnosed with ALS. #ALSAwarenessMonth
When @bsw5020 found out he was one of them, he + his wife launched @iamalsorg to empower patients to lead the search for cures to #EndALS. Read their inspiring story ⤵️
