Finally, a couple of nice preprints from younger members of the lab. Pre-doc Mira Mors (now PhD student in Stuttgart) contributed to this thorough screening of amphipathic helices by @shoken-lee.bsky.social from the @bahmanyarlab.bsky.social lab! (1/2) www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Are lipids actively sorted during clathrin mediated endocytosis like proteins? @mathilda95.bsky.social addresses this key open question together with our collaborators from the Honigmann and Modes labs using a new Lipid-STED workflow. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Proud to have attended #StandUpForScience2025 yesterday in DC. Science encourages creativity and compassion. Science saves lives. We cannot let this attack on science stand. #womeninscience

On #InternationalWomensDay, nominate a female scientist for the next FEBS | EMBO Women in Science Award. Deadline is 15 May 2025: www.embo.org/the-embo-com... #WomeninScience #ForAllWomenAndGirls 🧪

Giving thanks for all amazing and inspiring women around the world on International Women’s Day We will never give up fighting for equality, for what is just and fair, and for each other 💪 #WomenOfTheWorldUnite #WomenInScience 🧪

Every MLK Day, I reflect on my father’s Dream of justice, freedom, unity, and peace. Today, that vision feels fragile, but his message of infinite hope endures. As my mother said, "Freedom is never really won." Let’s honor them and commit to building a world rooted in love.

Our latest collaboration with Ron Biggs and John Marko at Northwestern is in the wild. Surprising centromere resistance to deformation even in the absence of most core centromere proteins. With @elinehendrix.bsky.social, Kousik Sundararajan and Mina Sun. #centromere www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I am super excited to share our article addressing a longstanding question in neurobiology: how Ca²⁺ signaling cascades initiated at dendritic spines operate at a distance. Check it out here: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S... @cp-cell.bsky.social.

Delighted to share our new preprint on the cell biology and genome of Stentor pyriformis, a giant ciliate that maintains Chlorella endosymbionts in surface-associated microtubule baskets. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Obviously, it is going to be the best session of #CellBio2024. I am not being biased at all 🤣

The Das lab is well represented @ascbiology.bsky.social #cellbio2024. Learn about our recent work at the following sessions.

The #WICB Sandra Masur Leadership awarded this year is Dr. Mary Dasso from NICHD,NIH. See you at the awards ceremony. #cellbio2024

Our first Bluesky post! If you are at ASCB #cellbio2024, check out our lab's work. Nathan, Caleb and Vanna will give talks and posters, and Zack, Jinghui and Maddie will present posters. Excited to be here.

Inna Nikonorova is presenting her latest work on signaling extracellular vesicles produced by C. elegans cilia. She developed a method for profiling EV subtypes and that can be applied in any system. This #cellbio2024 session is amazing!!!

Join the Starr-Luxton lab & friends at #ASCB2024! Bringing exciting new research on nuclear envelope dynamics and cytoskeletal crosstalk. 2 Talks + 3 Posters, Dec 15-16 in San Diego Topics: KASH proteins, motor proteins, nuclear movement & cellular biophysics!

After our #SciArt subgroup at #CellBio2024, join us for a very special Science Art Show & Reception, where you'll get to interact with our amazing speakers and other pioneers in this field. We are honored to feature over 30 scientists/artists in the exhibition! RSVP: beatascienceart.com/artshow2024/

Holding back tears all throughout the morning while delivering the Mentoring Keynote. It was more moving than anything to be in a room full of trailblazers in academia. Thank you @ASCBiology for this amazing recognition♥️♥️♥️
