Immune cells (blue) patrolling breast alveoli during lactation. Staining the myoepithelial cells and the immune cells with different fluorescent dyes revealed their close interaction. Making the breast tissue transparent allows the microscope to see the cells clearly, creating these crisp images. We make breast tissue transparent with a mixture of sugars and glycerol called FUnGI.

The Fight Against Breast Cancer

Interview with Anything But Square

Ben McCarthy and I chat about immune cells in the breast, 3D fluorescence microscopy, science art and the tension between faith and science.

What are breast ductal macrophages and why are they important?

How do I reconcile Christianity and science?

What is 3D fluorescence microscopy?

Listen in to find out and join the conversation.
