Christmas party 🎄- The lab went full senior mode (and won the best costume). You all rock 😄 !!!!!! (If you’re wondering where the youth went… check who’s been quietly draining the lab’s energy 😈)

Congratulations @centriolelab.bsky.social and collaborators! 👏 @mocel.bsky.social @sciencesunige.bsky.social

A big thank you to Pascal Crétard and the Société Genevoise d’Apiculture for inviting me to give a talk about our research, and for all the support during our first experimental season with bees 🐝💛

@mbcapitao.bsky.social successfully defended her PhD today. Congratulations!

Sad to miss this year’s ASCB meeting! But the lab is represented - don’t t miss @ac-almeida.bsky.social and her poster P0101. She will take you into the world of tubulin quantity control, microtubule dynamics, cell and tissue architecture.

Interested in applying U-ExM to cells, tissues, organoids, or cryo-sections? Our EMBO workshop is open for applications! 🧫🔬 Deadline: 12 Jan 2026 — don’t miss it!

We are deeply saddened to share the passing of Amos Bairoch, pioneer of bioinformatics and co-founder of SIB. His lifelong commitment for high-quality, open data transformed global research. We honour his legacy by continuing to build the future of bioinformatics.

Our latest collaboration with Fiedler lab @fmp-berlin.de and Panse labs UZH out on @biorxiv-plants.bsky.social. Using bead-adsorbed, non-hydrolyzable inositol pyrophosphate (PP-InsP) analogs, we isolated many putative PP-InsP-binding proteins from Arabidopsis. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... (1/6)
