 \nThe analysis of biological matrices at subcellular level necessitates th
 e use of multidisciplinary techniques and expertise. Soft X-ray Microscopy
  coupled with spectroscopy can provide insightful simultaneous morphologic
 al and chemical information that help in the understanding of biochemical 
 processes taking place at sub-micron scales. In the last few years the Twi
 nMic soft X-ray microscopy station [1] (400-2200 eV) installed at the Elet
 tra synchrotron has been attracting the interests of the Life Science comm
 unity thanks to its complementary imaging capabilities (brightfield and ph
 ase contrast) combined with low energy X-ray Fluorescence and X-ray absorp
 tion spectroscopy. Indeed the developed low energy XRF system [2] enables 
 to correlate the specimen morphology with the elemental distribution of li
 ght elements (from B till P) and of transition metals for which the charac
 teristic emission lines fall in the 180-2100 eV energy range.\nThe most re
 cent outcomes in research fields such as neuroscience-neurodisease [3]\, n
 anotoxicology [4\,5\,6]\, clinical medicine [7\,8] and food science [9] wi
 ll be shown through selected results.\nThe implementation of novel TwinMic
  imaging modes is in progress and has been recently demonstrated by ptycho
 graphy with randomly phased illumination acquiring scans across the L abso
 rption edge of iron on fibroblast cells exposed to cobalt ferrite nanopart
 icles [10] and with Phase-diverse Fresnel coherent diffractive imaging of 
 malaria parasite-infected red blood cells [11].\n\nReferences\n\n[1] B. Ka
