(May 29th, 2024) Advancements in Intravital Microscopy- Insights for Preclini...Scintica Instrumentation
Intravital microscopy (IVM) is a powerful tool utilized to study cellular behavior over time and space in vivo. Much of our understanding of cell biology has been accomplished using various in vitro and ex vivo methods; however, these studies do not necessarily reflect the natural dynamics of biological processes. Unlike traditional cell culture or fixed tissue imaging, IVM allows for the ultra-fast high-resolution imaging of cellular processes over time and space and were studied in its natural environment. Real-time visualization of biological processes in the context of an intact organism helps maintain physiological relevance and provide insights into the progression of disease, response to treatments or developmental processes.
In this webinar we give an overview of advanced applications of the IVM system in preclinical research. IVIM technology is a provider of all-in-one intravital microscopy systems and solutions optimized for in vivo imaging of live animal models at sub-micron resolution. The system’s unique features and user-friendly software enables researchers to probe fast dynamic biological processes such as immune cell tracking, cell-cell interaction as well as vascularization and tumor metastasis with exceptional detail. This webinar will also give an overview of IVM being utilized in drug development, offering a view into the intricate interaction between drugs/nanoparticles and tissues in vivo and allows for the evaluation of therapeutic intervention in a variety of tissues and organs. This interdisciplinary collaboration continues to drive the advancements of novel therapeutic strategies.

Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.
Richard's entangled aventures in wonderlandRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.

2. VSEPR Theory
It stands for Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory.
History:
The idea of a correlation between molecular geometry and
number of valence electron pairs (both shared and unshared
pairs) was originally proposed in 1939 by Ryutaro Tsuchida in
Japan.
And was independently presented in a Bakerian Lecture in 1940 by Nevil Sidgwick
and Herbert Powell of the University of Oxford.
Definition:
The VSEPR Theoryis used to predict the shape of the molecules from the
electronpairs that surround the central atoms of the molecule. The VSEPR
theory is basedon the assumption that the molecule will take a shape such
that electronic repulsion in the valence shell of that atom is minimized.
Introduction:
The Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory abbreviated as VSEPR theory is
based on the premise that there is a repulsion between the pairs of valence
3. electrons in all atoms, and the atoms will always tend to arrange themselves in a
manner in which this electron pair repulsion is minimalized. This arrangement of
the atom determines the geometry of the resulting molecule.
The two primary founders of the VSEPR theory are RonaldNyholm and Ronald
Gillespie. This theory is also known as the Gillespie-Nyholm theory to honour
these chemists.
According to the VSEPR theory, the repulsion between two electrons is caused by
the Pauli exclusion principle that has greater importance than electrostatic
repulsion in the determination of molecular geometry.
Postulates of VSEPR Theory:
The postulates of the VSEPR theory are listed below
In poly-atomic molecules (i.e. molecules made up of three or more atoms),
one of the constituent atoms is identified as the central atom to which all
other atoms belonging to the molecule are linked.
The total number of valence shell electron pairs decides the shape of the
molecule.
The electron pairs have a tendency to orient themselves in a way that
minimizes the electron-electron repulsion between them and maximizes the
distance between them.
The valence shell can be thought of as a sphere wherein the electron pairs
are localized on the surface in such a way that the distance between them is
maximized.
Should the central atom of the molecule be surrounded by bond pairs of
electrons, then, the asymmetrically shaped molecule can be expected.
Should the central atom be surrounded by both lone pairs and bond pairs of
electrons, the molecule would tend to have a distorted shape.
The VSEPR theory can be applied to each resonance structure of a molecule.
4. The strength of the repulsion is strongest in two lone pairs and weakest in
two bond pairs.
If electron pairs around the central atom are closer to each other, they will
repel each other. This results in an increase in the energy of the molecules.
If the electron pairs lie far from each other, the repulsions between them will
be less and eventually, the energy of the molecule will be low.
Predicting the Shapes of Molecules:
There is no direct relationship between the formula of a compound and the shape
of its molecules. The shapes of these molecules can be predicted from their Lewis
structures, however, with a model developed about 30 years ago, known as
the valence-shellelectron-pairrepulsion (VSEPR)theory.
The VSEPR theory assumes that each atom in a molecule will achieve a geometry
that minimizes the repulsion between electrons in the valence shell of that atom
and thus giving us the following shapes according no electrons in the domains.
Following are some of the shapes given according to the no of electrons in
molecules with their examples and diagrams.
Shape of molecules with 2 electrons:
Such molecules form a linear shape with an ideal bond angle of 180°
In this type of molecule, we find two places in the valence shell of the
central atom.
They should be arranged in such a manner suchthat repulsion can be
minimized (pointing in the oppositedirection).
Example: BeF2 , C02
5. Shapes of molecules with 3 electrons:
Such molecules make a trigonal planar shape or bent shape with a bond
angle of 120°
In this type of molecule, we find three molecules attached to a central atom.
They are arranged in such a manner such that repulsion between the
electrons can be minimized (toward the corners of an equilateral triangle).
Example: BF3 , S02
Shapes of molecules with 4 electrons:
Such molecules give a tetrahedral geometry or trigonal pyramidal. In some
cases molecules show a bent shape.
If we considerall these conditions for a three-dimensional molecule, we will
get a tetrahedral molecule in which the bond angle between H-C-H is
109.28’ (toward the corners of an equilateral triangle) CH4
Example: CH4 , NH3, H20
Trigonal Planar
Bent
Tetrahedral
Trigonal pyramidal
6. The Shape of H20 Molecule:
Shapes of molecules with 5 electrons:
Such Molecules a trigonal bi-pyramidal geometry, with a bond angles of
90°, 120°, 180°
In rare cases like SF4 molecules show a seesawshape and molecules like
CLF4 show a T-shapedstructure.
Let’s take an example of PF5. Here, repulsion can be minimized by even
distribution of electrons towards the corner of a trigonal pyramid. In trigonal
bipyramid, three positions lie along the equator of the molecule. The two
positions lie along an axis perpendicular to the equatorial plane.
Trigonal bi-pyramidal
See-Saw Shape
7. Shapes of molecules with 6 electrons:
These molecules an octahedral, square planer or square pyramidal with
bond angles of 90°, 180°
Examples: SF6, BRF5
VSEPR Theory and the Shapes of Molecules:
The strength of the repulsion between a lone pair and a bond pair of electrons lies
in between the repulsion between two lone pairs and between two bond pairs. The
order of repulsion between electron pairs is as follows:
Lone Pair- lone pair > Lone Pair- bond-pair > Bond Pair- bond pair.
1. Total number of electron pairs around the central atom = ½ (number of valence
electrons of central atom + number of atoms linked to central atom by single bonds)
For negative ions, add the number of electrons equal to the units of negative
charge on the ions to the valence electrons of the central atom.
For positive ions, subtract the number of electrons equal to the units
of positive charge on the ion from the valence electrons of the central atom.
2. The number of Bond pair = Total number of atoms linked to central atom by
single bonds.
3. Number of lone pairs = Total number of electron – No of shared pair
The electron pairs around the central atom repel each another and move so far
apart from each another that there are no greater repulsions between them. This
results in the molecule having minimum energy and maximum stability.
The shape of a molecule with only two atoms is always linear.
8. For molecules with three or more atoms, one of the atoms is called the
central atom and other atoms are attached to the central atom.
If the central atom is linked to similar atoms and is surrounded by bond pairs
of electrons only, the repulsions between them are similar as a result the
shape of the molecule is symmetrical and the molecule is said to have
regular geometry.
If the central atom is linked to different atoms or is surrounded by bond pair
as well as a lone pair of electrons, the repulsion between them is similar. As
a result, the shape of the molecule has an irregular or distorted geometry.
The exact shape of the molecule depends upon the total number of electron
pairs present around the central atom.
Role of Non-bonding electrons in VSEPR
Theory:
The valence electrons on the central atom in both NH3 and H2O should be distributed
toward the corners of a tetrahedron, as shown in the figure below. Our goal, however,
isn't predicting the distribution of valence electrons. It is to use this distribution of
electrons to predict the shape of the molecule. Until now, the two have been the same.
Once we include nonbonding electrons, that is no longer true.
The VSEPR theory predicts that the valence electrons on the central atoms in
ammonia and water will point toward the corners of a tetrahedron. Because we can't
locate the nonbonding electrons with any precision, this prediction can't be tested
directly. But the results of the VSEPR theory can be used to predict the positions of
the nuclei in these molecules, which can be tested experimentally. If we focus on the
positions of the nuclei in ammonia, we predict that the NH3 molecule should have a
shape best described as trigonal pyramidal, with the nitrogen at the top of the pyramid.
Water, on the other hand, should have a shape that can be described as bent,
9. or angular. Both of these predictions have been shown to be correct, which reinforces
our faith in the VSEPR theory.
Incorporating Double and Triple bonds in
VSEPR Theory:
Compounds that contain double and triple bonds raise an important point: The
geometry around an atom is determined by the number of places in the valence
shell of an atom where electrons can be found, not the number of pairs of valence
electrons. Consider the Lewis structures of carbon dioxide (CO2) and the carbonate
(CO3
2-) ion, for example.
There are four pairs of bonding electrons on the carbon atom in CO2, but only two
places where these electrons can be found. (There are electrons in the C=O double
bond on the left and electrons in the double bond on the right.) The force of
repulsion between these electrons is minimized when the two C=O double bonds
are placed on oppositesides of the carbonatom. The VSEPR theory therefore
predicts that CO2 will be a linear molecule, just like BeF2, with a bond angle of
180o.
The Lewis structure of the carbonate ion also suggests a total of four pairs of
valence electrons on the central atom. But these electrons are concentrated in three
places: The two C-O single bonds and the C=O double bond. Repulsions between
these electrons are minimized when the three oxygen atoms are arranged toward
the corners of an equilateral triangle. The CO3
2- ion should therefore have a
trigonal-planar geometry, just like BF3, with a 120o bond angle.
