Our @jcellsci.bsky.social poster article “The nucleus-vacuole junction at a glance” is out! Big thanks to @abbybuch.bsky.social and @luskinglab.bsky.social for organizing an amazing special issue “Cell biology of the nucleus”. #ContactSites journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...

Hey #nucleus nerds, the JCS Special Issue on the Cell Biology of the Nucleus is now live! This was a pleasure to co-edit with Megan King @luskinglab.bsky.social.

Our Special Issue: Cell Biology of the Nucleus is complete Explore our Toc: journals.biologists.com/jcs/issue/13... Our cover image shows the posteriorly positioned nuclei (Nup50-mCherry - pink) of notochord cells in Ciona embryos. See article by Peng et al. journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...

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...

A new review from the lab on #LipidDroplet heterogeneity in Current Opinion in Cell Biology. Big thanks to Philippe Chavrier and Chris Fromme for organizing an exciting #Membrane Trafficking special issue! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Congrats to @bohnertlab.bsky.social PhD student Pascal Höhne for winning a poster prize at the 77th Mosbacher Kolloquium!!! @gbmev.bsky.social

Maya Schuldiner has won the Otto Warburg Medal for her work on #ContactSites!! Fantastic time at the 77th Mosbacher Kolloquium, absolutely outstanding science and an emotional family reunion of Schuldigang alumni and their labs. Thanks to the organizers and @gbmev.bsky.social for an amazing meeting!

SAVE THE DATE - our next DGZ International Meeting will take place March 14-17,2027, in Bonn, Germany. Stay tuned!

Job alert! The Faculty of Medicine at University of Münster @uni-muenster.de invites applications for a W3 #professorship (with leadership responsibilities) in Pathobiochemistry at the Institute of Physiological Chemistry and Pathobiochemistry, starting in September 2027. www.ukm.de/karriere/pro...

Happy our lab could contribute to this exciting story from the Thomas Becker and Nikolaus Pfanner labs! A protein #Translocase forms #LipidDroplet #Mitochondria #ContactSites via a substrate-mimicry mechanism! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Join us tomorrow at noon for #MembraneTrafficking and #ExtracellularVesicles! @dgz.bsky.social

I'm delighted to present TWO new preprints from my lab, led by @mczanellati.bsky.social and @sherryhsu.bsky.social, about how #organelles remodel throughout #NeuronalDifferentiation. Check out the threads about their papers below:

Interested in lipids? Join us @ the 2026 FASEB Lipid Droplet: From Mechanisms to Disease Conference (July 26-30, Scottsdale, AZ). Registration is now open! events.faseb.org/event/Lipid-... We are co-locating with the FASEB Phospholipids SRC! Register for one to enjoy BOTH meetings!

Ups we did it again! Please mark your calender. EMBO Workshop “Lipid Code to Life”, taking place September 7–11, 2026, in Dresden, organized by Maria Fedorova, @lipid.bsky.social, Valerie O'Donnell, @holthuislab.bsky.social and @molcellbiophys-lab.bsky.social 🥳 Retweets = lipidlove

Marie Hugenroth, Maria Bohnert @bohnertlab.bsky.social and colleagues interrogate the role of Pex31 in metabolic adaptation of the nucleus–vacuole junction. journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/... #OpenAccess #ReadandPublish

Wonderful to see our paper on regulation of the #Organelle #ContactSite #NVJ out in its final form in @jcellsci.bsky.social! Congratulations to first author Marie Hugenroth and the whole team! journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...

The next #DGZ Focus Workshop on #Cilia & #Centrosomes will take place November 25 (end of October is our DGZ meeting in HD). Join us for a great speaker line-up, and big thanks to David Mick @mick-lab.bsky.social & Dagmar Wachten @wachtenlab.bsky.social for organizing!

Fat storage in the body relies on specialized structures called lipid droplets. In a new Science study, researchers identified the microprotein adipogenin as a regulator of adipocyte lipid droplet size, revealing a key mechanism in lipid homeostasis. Learn more this week: https://scim.ag/4nFEGO7

Wonderful to see our paper on the #organelle signatures of #neurons and #astrocytes out in final form - congratulations, Shannon Rhoads and team!🎉 t.co/BPxKlbU6Ou

Excited to share our study out in @natcellbio.nature.com! Led by @mikelangelipid.bsky.social, we identify the first #LipidDroplet lipid quality control pathway: LD-localized FSP1 protects stored lipids from oxidative damage and prevents LD-initiated #ferroptosis. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Proud to share our study on #LipidDroplet #Motility #Mitochondria #MembraneContactSite now in Cell Reports @cp-cellreports.bsky.social! Big thanks to @rwedlichsoldner.bsky.social, @flofroehlich.bsky.social, @ruferbus.bsky.social, Daniel Kümmel lab, Thomas Becker lab! www.cell.com/cell-reports...

🎉 Huge congrats to Maya Schuldiner from the Weizmann Institute (Israel) for the 🏅 Otto Warburg Medal 2026! Her work on how proteins find their way to organelles and how these organelles talk to each other has reshaped how we think about cells 🧬✨ #OWM #WeizmannInstitute @elsevierconnect.bsky.social
