Super-resolution image of a primary hippocampal neuronal culture acquired by structured illumination microscopy (SIM²). Microtubules (anti-tubulin, gold) outline neuronal somata and neuritic projections radiating from a central cluster, reflecting organized network architecture. Nuclei (DAPI, cyan) highlight both neuronal and glial populations. Cells were seeded in a μ-Slide 18 Well Glass Bottom and imaged on a Zeiss Elyra 7 SIM system with SIM² processing.
