Love this paper from my PhD lab Columbia University: you thought your old VHS player wasn't good for anything? Turns out you make the magnetic tape head into an ultra-sensitive tool for single molecule #biophysics. So cool! (check the guitar in Fig. 1C) PNASNews pnas.org/content/116/16…

Two best friends 🧑‍🤝‍🧑holding on to letting go: Our new study on vinculin-talin is out on bioRxiv, with a crisp mix of magnetic tweezers, simulations, actin bundling and cell experiments. Fantastic collaboration with Rafael Tapia-Rojo, Medalia lab Universität Zürich, Geiger lab Weizmann Institute. 🧵

📰Rafael Tapia-Rojo , Dr Marc Mora & Prof Sergi Garcia-Manyes have developed a new technique for studying protein folding revealing new insights.💡KCL Natural, Mathematical & Engineering Sciences Find out more about this significant breakthrough here ➡️: bit.ly/3W1WDco #research #proteinfolding #physics #science

A € 1.4 million European Research Council (ERC) grant has been awarded to Dr Rafael Tapia-Rojo KCL Physics to further his research on how mechanical forces regulate protein activity. Key findings on this relationship can be linked to progression of diseases including cancer. 👇 kcl.ac.uk/news/kings-phy…

Scientists at the Crick and King's College London have found that proteins with “softer” or more flexible regions can cross into the nucleus more quickly. The study was led by former Crick postdoc Rafael Tapia-Rojo and group leader Sergi Garcia-Manyes crick.ac.uk/news-and-repor…
