title: Immunofluorescence Images of iPSC-Derived Human Intestinal Organoids (HIOs) Infected with Ebola and Marburg Viruses (Figure 6 Dataset)

description: Immunofluorescence images of iPSC-derived human intestinal organoids (HIOs), either mock-infected or infected with Ebola virus (EBOV) or Marburg virus (MARV), collected at Day 1 and Day 3 post-infection. These images correspond to Figure 6 in the associated manuscript.

Fluorescent markers include GFP-CDX2 (green) for gut epithelial identity, EBOV NP or MARV NP (red) for viral nucleoprotein, and DAPI (blue) for DNA. Images were captured at 20x magnification for overall visualization and 63x magnification for detailed imaging of viral inclusion bodies.

The dataset includes .tif files (some merged and some individual fluorescence channels used in the published figure panels), .czi files (multi-channel and z-stack raw microscopy data), and .gif files representing animated z-stack projections.

title: InscriptiFact -- an image database of inscriptions and artifacts

description: The InscriptiFact Collection is designed to allow access via the Internet to high-resolution images of ancient inscriptions and artifacts, primarily from the Near Eastern and Mediterranean Worlds. The targeted inscriptions constitute some of the world’s earliest written records, which are mostly housed in a number of international museums and libraries, as well as field projects where inscriptions still remain in situ. Included, for example, are, selected Dead Sea Scrolls; cuneiform tablets from Mesopotamia, Persia, Canaan and Egypt; early Jewish papyri from Egypt; lapidary inscriptions, primarily from Jordan, Lebanon and Cyprus; inscriptions on a variety of hard media (e.g., ostraca, copper, semi-precious stones, jar handles) mostly written in early Canaanite, Phoenician, Hebrew, Aramaic, Ammonite and Edomite; and much more. These ancient texts are foundational documents that serve as a point of reference for Judaism, Christianity, Islam and the cultures out of which they emerged. The name "InscriptiFact" is intended to convey the concept of a scholarly archive based on "facts" about "inscriptions" and "artifacts." West Semitic Research Project (WSRP) under the auspices of the University of Southern California (USC) is broadly acknowledged as a leader in the application of photographic and digital technologies to capture and analyze data of ancient texts. The West Semitic Research image archive now contains approximately 1,500,000 images. Important!
