Nikon has announced the winners of its prestigious Small World competition, celebrating the best in photomicrography.
Rodent optic nerve head showing astrocytes , contractile proteins and retinal vasculature | Hassanain Qambari & Jayden Dicksonannounced its winners and the top prize went to Hassanain Qambari for his vivid image of a rodent optic nerve head.
“Diabetic retinopathy occurs when high blood sugar damages the blood vessels in the tissue at the back of the eye, known as the retina. The damaged blood vessels can swell and leak, which can cause blurry vision or total loss of eyesight. Since 2021, Qambari has devoted his time and research to the early detection and reversal of the disease,” Nikon explains.
“Over the past 20 years, our research group has refined the technique of isolated ocular perfusion labeling for fine vessels in the eye,” Qambari explains. “While the ophthalmic artery in the rodent model presented a technically demanding challenge, we were able to overcome it with persistence and patience.”
