A tremendous honor! Thrilled & humbled to receive 2025 Keio Medical Science Prize for launching LLPS #phaseseparation field (= #softmatter + #cellbio) w collaborators esp @HymanLab. & Congrats to Akiko Iwasaki @virusesimmunity.bsky.social. www.princeton.edu/news/2025/09... #KeioMedicalSciencePrize

🎉 Congratulations to HHMI Investigators Clifford Brangwynne and Akiko Iwasaki, the two winners of the 30th annual Keio Medical Science Prize. This international prize, awarded by Keio University in Tokyo, honors scientists who have made major contributions to the fields of medical or life sciences.

these people in my lab are amazing

Awesome work Anita, congrats on an amazing paper!

Check out this awesome story about the work of an awesome (former) undergrad in our lab @hollycheng.bsky.social who worked closely w @zs-biophys.bsky.social‬ Howard Stone, James Roggeveen & Huan Wang. bioengineering.princeton.edu/news/2025/st...

Congrats @yoonjikim.bsky.social and co-authors!!!!!

It has been a dream come true to lead a rotation in the @mblscience.bsky.social Physiology course - thanks to the amazing Directors @gladfelterlab.bsky.social and @brangwynnelab.bsky.social, course staff, TAs, and students!

Combining sequencing and imaging, @brangwynnelab.bsky.social maps the spatiotemporal dynamics of rRNA processing, demonstrating how rRNA serves as both a scaffold and a substrate for the nucleolus—a multiphase, liquid-like structure. 🧪 🧬

Congrats to Jing @jesszhiyuezhao.bsky.social‬ & @dnamystrom.bsky.social‬ on cool manuscript!!! Reveals how cell nucleus is a heterogeneous material, w chromatin organization controlling formation & phase behavior of nuclear condensates. #CellBiology #Chromatin #PhaseSeparation rdcu.be/evWxR

An amazing group of students this year in Brangwynne rotation @mblscience.bsky.social Physiology course!!!!

How to spy on condensates: technology feature in @natmethods.nature.com Our views on the topic, by Hyman,Rosen,Brangwynne, Sabari, Kappel,Xu & myself, presented here @hymanlab.bsky.social @brangwynnelab.bsky.social @bsabari.bsky.social @kallikappel.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

How to spy on condensates: technology feature in @natmethods.nature.com on self-organization and collective properties of condensates with quotes from Anthony Hyman @hymanlab.bsky.social @mpi-cbg.de, @brangwynnelab.bsky.social, and many more. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Nice article about the latest in the biomolecular condensate field, with some nice images and quotes from us. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The one and only Manu @prakashlab.bsky.social inspiring @mblscience.bsky.social Physiology students at this morning's lecture.

A great morning with the @mblscience.bsky.social Physiology students after my talk today.

Awesome paper alert! Learn about spectrum of chromatin condensate morphologies due to elastocapillary effects (no, liquids do not need to be spherical!), from amazing duo @dnamystrom.bsky.social & Hongbo Zhao, w/ important contributions from co-authors Jorine Eeftens, Mikko Haataja, Andrej Kosmrlj.

Princeton's new Omenn-Darling Bioengineering Institute is hiring! New building opening this Fall, & Princeton is an awesome place to live & do amazing research at intersection of engineering & life sciences. **Please spread the word*** bioengineering.princeton.edu/join/open.

Start of 2025 @mblscience.bsky.social Physiology course! This is the second year of Amy @gladfelterlab.bsky.social and I co-Directing this absolutely amazing and life-changing course: www.mbl.edu/education/ad...

Such a wonderful symposium at UMichigan! And a fantastic opportunity to connect with our beloved benefactors (and Michiganders) Gil Omenn and Martha Darling, together with my Princeton/Omenn-Darling Bioengineering Institute colleague (& Deputy Director) @toettch.bsky.social

Very glad to contribute to this cool study of of nucleoli, led by former Princeton undergrad Holly Cheng! P.S., we all looked much younger when we were working on this project (see picture below) 😁

Congrats to this year's Brangwynne lab new PhD Kevin Xu (co-advised with Avalos) and graduating undergrads Aya Abu-Alfa and Emmett Grover. Kevin is now CEO of a startup, Aya is off to MD/PhD program, and Emmett to medical school. Congratulations - we are so proud of you!!!!

Nucleoli as biomolecular bubble tea! Congrats to former Princeton ugrad Holly Cheng (now GS @MIT) ->Holly's senior thesis work, a close collab w Roggeveen Wang & @zs-biophys.bsky.social‬ &Stone. Come for the cool movies & stay for the viscoelasticity! www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2407423122

The 2025 Saltiel Life Sciences Symposium is this Thursday (5/29)! @brangwynnelab.bsky.social will start us off with the Mary Sue and Kenneth Coleman Lecture at 9:00 AM, followed by talks from @jamesknunez.bsky.social at 9:55 and @leonardomorsut.bsky.social at 10:25. myumi.ch/lsi-symposiu...

So grateful for our amazing inaugural advisory council for the Omenn-Darling Bioengineering Institute, who came to Princeton last week to learn about and help guide all that is happening in ODBI, the future of Bioengineering at Princeton. Thank you all!!! bioengineering.princeton.edu

What drives cytoplasmic mRNA organization? We created unbiased, genome-wide maps of mesoscale RNA-RNA spatial proximity, revealing impact of encoded protein function. Fantastic work from @lindsayabecker.bsky.social @sofiquinodoz.bsky.social @davidaknowles.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Lovely dinner tonight with Nathan Vardi, author of the page-turner "For Blood and Money: Billionaires, Biotech, and the Quest for a Blockbuster Drug". Nathan will speak to Princeton students in our Biotech class tomorrow, can't wait!

Cool work from some amazing Princeton colleagues!

Princeton's Omenn-Darling Bioengineering Institute is looking for a Cell Engineering facility Director. A tremendous opportunity to join our growing community, in brand-new building & brand new Institute! Please spread the word!!! bioengineering.princeton.edu. puwebp.princeton.edu/AcadHire/app...

Excited about Nereid's progress in using our Corelet technology to find new drugs: Corelet™ Platform: Precision High Throughput Screening for Targeted Dr... sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

“… without scientific progress no amount of achievement in other directions can insure our health, prosperity, and security as a nation in the modern world." - written half a century ago, by Vannevar Bush, more relevant today than ever. see this piece by Princeton's Tilghman: doi.org/10.1091/mbc....

So thrilled to have our new colleague Tina Kim join us (back!) at Princeton as joint Bioengineering (ODBI) and Neuroscience (PNI) hire: bioengineering.princeton.edu/news/2025/ch...

Attention all you fantastic and energetic student and postdocs!!!!!

Excited to see this (cover) article on condensates come out in Scientific American. Nice quotes from me and many folks in the field. www.scientificamerican.com/article/myst...
