Abstract: Just as schoolchildren sprinkle iron filings on a sheet of paper placed over a magnet to visualize the magnetic field around the magnet, scientists who are interested in magnetism strive to image the magnetic fields within and around objects across a wide range of spatial and temporal scales. Although many different magnetic imaging techniques are now available, imaging micro- and nano-scale magnetic fields in living organisms is still challenging. On page 486 of this issue, Le Sage et al.1 describe an advanced optical magnetic imaging technique which they use to study the three-dimensional magnetic fields that originate from chains of magnetic nanocrystals inside the living cells of magnetotactic bacteria.
