Watching Sven elucidate this mechanism from an unbiased screen onwards has been one of my favorite experiences as a PI. In these challenging times for science at Harvard, it reminds me of the sheer joy of doing science and making discoveries.

Mark your calendars! The CSHA Cilia & Centrosomes meeting returns this November 2025, can’t wait for what’s sure to be an exceptional gathering of the community.

*Deadline extended* Applications for this year's #CryoEM Data Processing Workshop are due March 27! Don't miss this chance to learn about various approaches to deal with conformational/compositional heterogeneity. myumi.ch/lsi-cryo-2025 @jbquerido.bsky.social @shyamalm.bsky.social

The insides of microtubules of motile cilia and flagella are coated in proteins - but are they all important for motility? Our latest collaborative study addresses this question using trypanosomatids as model organisms. Matt explains more below:

A reminder that the Brown lab has an opening for a postdoc fellow: brown.hms.harvard.edu/jobs/242. This might suit someone from the #cilia community interested in learning structural biology. Deadline extended to the 10th Jan.

This was a great collaboration and culmination of a huge amount of work including our first attempt to join #teamtomo. @ruizhangmt.bsky.social expertly summarizes the highlights below:

Deadline alert: "Biophysics of Motile Cilia": Apply before Dec 1st for consideration for contributed talks! Topics: #axoneme mechanics, #synchronization, #navigation, #ciliopathies, ... Meet us in Bad Honnef, Germany, 30.03.-02.04.2025 we-heraeus-stiftung.de/veranstaltun... Please re-sky!
