Hi-res microscopes give biologists petabytes of data. Scientists are creating an AI assistant to make sense of it.
At UC Berkeley, researchers are utilizing high-resolution microscopes to gather extensive data on living biological systems. This data, measured in petabytes, is being used to train an AI model to help interpret complex biological interactions. The initiative aims to revolutionize the understanding of cellular processes through advanced imaging techniques.
- ▪The MOSAIC microscope combines multiple high-powered imaging techniques into a single machine.
- ▪Researchers are developing a large vision language model to analyze the petabytes of data collected.
- ▪The imaging data allows scientists to track cellular structures and interactions over time.

Mind & body, Research, Technology & engineering Hi-res microscopes give biologists petabytes of data. Scientists are creating an AI assistant to make sense of it. At UC Berkeley, high-resolution microscopes are generating images of cells and embryos day and night, collecting massive amounts of data to train an AI model for living biological systems. By Robert Sanders A sequence of high-resolution images showing a cell dividing into three daughter cells, a rare event captured by the MOSAIC microscope in 5D.
