This image for day 180 of #LMB365 was taken by Ilaria Chiaradia in the Cell Biology Division when she was on a confocal microscopy training session. It shows atypical mitosis in a HeLa cell which is characterised by double the number of centrosomes (labelled with anti-γ-tubulin antibody in green) and cross-shaped mitotic DNA (labelled in blue with DAPI), while mitochondria are labelled in red.
