Abstract

Imaging of macromolecules and organelles in the context of cells and tissues is challenging because of the different scales and big data sharing. High resolution imaging of ultrastructure using electron microscopy (EM) typically has a small field of view. Panorama EM views, which we name nanotomy (nano-anatomy), now cross orders of magnitude scales (http://www.nanotomy.org). The open-source sharing allows reuse of data for further analysis, e.g. of structures that were not the focus of the primary study. Nanotomy will likely become the future standard routine EM technique for tissue and cell imaging. In this talk I will highlight the technique and the recent database of nanotomy of human pancreas tissue obtained from the Network for Pancreatic Organ donors with Diabetes.
