Of all the meanings and definitions of the word passion, the two that are applied here are “a pursuit to which one is devoted” and “excitement of the mind.” These are the emotional feelings that drive artists, musicians, writers, and scientists to fervently apply their skills. Within the field of microscopy, scientists and technologists display their zeal when they pursue the development of new techniques and methodologies, when they invite the world into their laboratories through telepresence microscopy, and when they use only the highest of standards to execute their studies. It is the ardor that drives retired microscopists to deliver microscopes to school children, and the joy that makes teachers of us all, as we are so desirous to share our knowledge. Passion is the deep feeling that can motivate a microscopist to produce imaginative IMAX movies and films for public television series.
