False-coloured cryo-SEM of aphid (Family: <em>Aphididae</em>) on broad bean leaf. Mag x270. Image by Dr Christian Hacker. Multicolour labelling of estrogen responding cells in developing zebrafish embryo. Transgenic embyros were treated with estrogen and imaged at 96 hours post fertilisation. Merged image gives the estrogen responding cells a variety of hues. Scale bar 200 µm. Image taken by Dr Aya Takesono, courtesy of Dr Tetsu Kudoh. SEM of bacteria <em>Burkholdria thailandensisl</em>.
