Selecting a gift basket is like putting together the perfect meal: Lots of smaller, distinct items blend to create a balanced, thoughtful whole that’s more exciting than the sum of its parts. In fact we see it as a kind of two-for-one. There are, of course, the goodies that come in the box or basket, but often the container itself can provide stylish storage after the original contents are long gone. If you’re on the prowl for the perfect present—whether it’s a cocktail kit to celebrate a housewarming or a postpartum bundle that contains seriously useful essentials—look no further than our curated picks for the best gift baskets.

A team of scientists at UmeĂĄ University in Sweden came up with a way to create complex 3D maps of whole organs in incredible detail. The approach involves embedding a whole organ in agarose, a stiff gel matrix, and then using this support matrix to section the tissue into cm3 chunks. These chunks are the perfect size for fluorescent antibody labeling of specific cell types and subsequent deep tissue imaging, using a technique such as optical projection tomography. Once the chunks are labeled and imaged, it is possible to stitch the images together on a computer to create a 3D map of the entire organ. The researchers hope that the technique could reveal previously unobservable changes in diseased organs, and...
