Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSteph Nowotarski is Head of Electron Microscopy at the Stowers Institute, bringing nine years of hands-on expertise in light and volume electron microscopy across scales from proteins to whole tissues. With a PhD in Molecular Cell and Developmental Biology, she forged deep cell biology insight mapping actin cytoskeleton regulation by combining confocal and structured illumination imaging with quantitative analysis. Her postdoctoral work advanced large-scale, high-resolution volume EM in planarians, developing image analysis and visualization skills that now inform lab-wide microscopy strategy and workflow design. Known as a biologist-artist, she blends rigorous quantitative science with a strong visual sensibility to communicate complex datasets. Based in Kansas City, she leads imaging efforts that bridge developmental biology, high-throughput EM, and inventive data displays that reveal cellular architecture in new ways.
