The 2024 Nikon Small World in Motion Competition



The Nikon Small World in Motion Competition shows us the marvels of microscopic videography, and they have announced its winners for 2024. First place went to Dr. Bruno Vellutini of the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics for a time-lapse of the embryogenesis of a fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster). You can see the mitotic waves created when its cells divide.

See the videos of all five winners at the competition gallery, and see the honorable mentions, too. (via Gizmodo)
