Fantastic work!

How does a cell remodel the ER membrane into a lipid droplet? Excited to share our new bioRxiv preprint, where we find that regulated opening of the seipin ring defines a functional ER–lipid droplet interface — and identify SMLR1 as a regulator of this transition. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

So exciting!

In a series of 3 papers and preprints, we’re thrilled to share with you the working laser phase plate. In collaboration with research led by Holger Müller at UC Berkeley, this is a huge innovation in imaging to make small and faint objects inside cells visible. bit.ly/4vK9LVn

Postdoc position open at the Dunn School, University of Oxford #cryoEM #teamtomo #cilia #postdoc, come join us! Deadline 15th May. www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DRC546/p...

Excited to see this work led by @jennifersapia.bsky.social online! Substrate-dependent oligomerization modulates DGAT1 activity and subcellular localization www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Please REPOST (“likes” don’t help in diffusion!) and consider applying: we work in such a fantastic context, we ask so interesting questions, and we have such a collegial and best-willing atmosphere… CRBM = Happy & Good Science

Registration is open for the FASEB #LipidDroplet meeting in Scottsdale, July 26-30! This is THE premier North American conference on LDs, you do not want to miss it!

Excited to share that as my group launches across Karolinska Institutet and the University of Helsinki, we’re recruiting postdocs and research assistants to study the nanoscale architecture of lipid flux using in-cell structural biology approaches, including cryo-ET and cryo-CLEM

Congratulations, Julia Mahamid! Julia Mahamid receives the @dfg.de Leibniz Prize for her work on structural cell biology! #LeibnizPreis

Fantastic work from Rasmus finally online!! Really, this is incredible science, do check it out even if not interested in bcateria or translocation or folding or proteomics or bioinfomartics or even in-cell cryo-ET.

Excited to be giving a talk tomorrow at Karolinska. If anyone is in the area, do come check it out! news.ki.se/calendar/sem...

Short piece on my favorite protein! And despite all our efforts, it is really still a mystery what this conserved lipid droplet biogenesis orchestrator actually does…
