Shribak captured the image on a microscope he and the late �黨�ǿ���Ƶ Distinguished Scientist Shinya Inoué f and which Shribak continues to develop for use with a variety of organisms.

Called the OI-DIC microscope, it is particularly suited for imaging transparent organisms, such as the medusa Clytia with Jocelyn Malamy of University of Chicago. The microscope enables live imaging of dynamic cellular processes at high resolution, without the need for dyes or labels in the sample.
