Basic science can lead to innovation in health care – and beauty under the microscope. We asked for you to “Show Us Your Science,” and faculty, staff and student researchers answered the call by sharing images captured under the microscope while at work in UArizona Health Sciences labs.

The request for submissions was inspired by a photo gallery on Health Sciences Connect featuring images captured by Andrea Wellington, an assistant research scientist in the Eggers Lab in the Department of Physiology at the College of Medicine – Tucson.

If you are interested in sharing your microscopic images with the Health Sciences community, please email your images to HealthSciencesConnect@arizona.edu.

Your email should include your name and title, your college, department or center affiliation, the name and affiliation of your lab, and a brief description of the research being studied in the image provided. Your description should be accessible to a general audience, with as little jargon as possible, to inspire a love in science in all viewers.
