Our new preprint is up! This is the main postdoc work of @wiesner-t.bsky.social focusing on exocytosis along the axon shaft and its regulation by the sub membrane actin-spectrin scaffold: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Read the thread below for a summary of our findings 🧵1/11

I wrote an article summarizing our recent findings of beta cell cilia - neuron contacts. It was fun to elaborate a bit on the exploration of #openaccess #volumeEM datasets: analyticalscience.wiley.com/content/arti...

Super happy to see CLEM-Reg out in @natmethods.nature.com! A short thread on the algorithm behind it and how to try it out for yourself🧵(1/9) www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our new preprint is about the airway epithelium microtubule network, cilia, basal body protein composition, averaging of volumetric fluorescence data, and expansion microscopy. Four years of very hard work from our very talented Emma van Grinsven. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... (1/N)

The reason this cartoon resonated so well back when it was first published was because it was absurd. However, I fear this is where we are with much of the AI based work that is spreading into science.

Hey, it's out! doi.org/10.1016/j.ce... Aligning Big Brains and Atlases, ABBA in short, is published in Cell Reports @cp-cellreports.bsky.social . @biancasilvalab.bsky.social's lab added an analysis pipeline on top of it (BraiAn) and did all the relevant biological work. What is it ? Short thread:

📢Call for speakers We are looking for ECRs to speak in our mini-symposium run together with the popular membrane trafficking webinar series organised by ‪@franbottanelli.bsky.social @felixmendu.bsky.social & @ishier.bsky.social. focalplane.biologists.com/2025/07/14/f... Apply by 24 August

Check out our lab's latest paper. Laura Downie found that the Lamin B Receptor (LBR) can be used to inducibly label all kinds of membrane contact sites in live cells doi.org/10.1371/jour...

An antidote against the current fantasies of #VirtualCells from Jeremy Gunawardena: www.nature.com/articles/nbt... It is indeed true that what a cell is becomes of little importance in the enterprise, though I would argue that this is out of ignorance. A cell is more than the product of GRNs

This is so upsetting. Outsourcing writing does not "free up time to do more science" it's just a step further toward becoming the CSO at the top of a managerial pyramid rather than being a scientist

Nature Methods is hiring! We are seeking a new editor with expertise in microscopy, imaging technology, and/or cell biology. The position is available in NYC/Jersey City or Shanghai/Beijing on a hybrid working model. Apply by August 3! springernature.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/SpringerNatu...

Superstars/Nobel winners will get job offers from everywhere. They do anyway. We should be focused on the average student, postdoc and lab tech whose life is going to be turned upside down by all of this. They have nowhere to go. Let's write stories about that.

Manu Prakash practices “recreational biology,” a scientific approach that explores life in the same playful way that puzzles probe math. “Basic science is not at the service of something, but the groundwork that is our entire society’s foundation.” www.quantamagazine.org/how-paradoxi...

In the context of our @reviewcommons.org revision process, I'm happy to announce Microscopy Nodes v2.2.0! This packs lots of new fun features, including new color management 🌈, clearer transparency handling 🫥, custom default settings 🔧 and more! Preprint at doi.org/10.1101/2025...
