STED image of CD95 receptors on the cell membrane. For every fluorescent receptor spot, the brightness (number of photons per pixel) and standard deviation of the dot size (σ) are analysed. In addition to the use of STED microscopy, Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) image spectroscopy and photobleaching step analysis were developed further. (Image: HHU/Cornelia Monzel)
