 <br /><strong>BIOPHYSICAL EVENING</strong></p><h4><strong><em>“Single-Molec
 ule Orientation-Localization Microscopy: New Challenges and Biophysical Ins
 ights”</em></strong></h4><p><strong><em>Abstract</em></strong><em>: Single-
 molecule orientation-localization microscopy builds upon photoswitching mec
 hanisms used in localization microscopy (SMLM) to measure both the position
 s and orientations of fluorophores with nanoscale resolution. This 6D infor
 mation enables biophysicists to visualize both the morphology and organizat
 ion of biomolecular assemblies simultaneously. We have recently found that 
 it is impossible for polarization-sensitive imaging to distinguish a single
  rotating (“wobbling”) molecule from a pair of molecules that spatially coi
 ncide\, but measuring a fluorophore’s absorption and emission dipole moment
 s simultaneously offers a solution to this challenge. I’ll also review our 
 group’s recent use of fluorogenic probes to visualize the dynamic architect
 ures of amyloid aggregates and biomolecular condensates.</em></p><p><strong
