The video of Drosophila embryogenesis published in Nature Methods article about SPIM registration was among the finalists of Drosophila Image Award 2011.

CATMAID: collaborative annotation toolkit for massive amounts of image data is used to display the small universe of mouse visual cortex imaged by EM. The work from Davi Bock in Clay Reid lab was published in Nature. The CATMAID instance with the dataset is hosted at Open Connectome Project. Enjoy this amazing data.
