All of those stunning @CDCgov public domain pics you see in news stories of viruses, like the flu, Ebola, and HIV, take a lot of technique and artistic skill. I got to profile electron microscopist Cynthia Goldsmith who imaged them. scifri.me/wz1 This is Cynthia, using an electron microscope with Dr. Roosecelis Martines. Cynthia has been been capturing these deadly viruses under the lens @CDCgov since 1983.
