We've asked Chantal Roubinet (Buzz Baum's Lab) to tell us about her recent publication in Current Biology where she shows asymmetric nuclear division forms sibling nuclei that differ in size and composition. Read the interview here: bit.ly/3kMgg8S


Check out the latest work on asymmetric nuclear division by our super talented postdoc Chantal Roubinet ! She is currently looking for more senior/independent position so get in touch fast! Congratulations 👏👏🥳


Chantal Roubinet Of course it shouldn't go without saying there were many more who contributed in some way, including Dr Matt Russell and Emy St-pierre who were really helpful in developing our EM protocol and getting insightful data that didn't quite make it into the final paper




Thanks a lot BSCB, Prof Jennifer L. Rohn and all of you for your messages, and congratulation to Alan Prescott and Hoang Anh Le (aka Anh), PhD 🏳️🌈 for their beautiful images!




Interested in #evolution and #morphogenesis? Twice the science next Monday on #CamMorphoSeries: 2 systems 🌱🪰 + 2 talks by @RenskeVroomans and Mateusz Trylinski (Buzz Baum's Lab)!

We combined #AlphaFold and #cryoEM to build a new model of the nuclear pore complex, the largest complex in the human cell! The structure covered by the model is 15x bigger than the human ribosome and 2x bigger than old nuclear pore models. 1/7 Read how: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

(1/6) Work by Christian Zimmerli and @MatteoFFM in collaboration with Jan Kosinski, Julia Mahamid and Hummer Lab published today Science Magazine reveals that nuclear pores are mechanosensitive. They dilate and constrict in living cells. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…



Delighted to announce the winner of this month's #LMCBImageoftheMonth competition. Congratulations Chantal Roubinet (@PichaudLab Buzz Baum's Lab)! The image is titled "Beautiful brain" and shows a 3D Drosophila larval brain lobe, stained for lamin (green), chromatin (blue), tubulin (purple)


On the very same PNAS issue that includes the Oka GU et al. paper, another interesting work "Physical mechanisms of ESCRT-III–driven cell division". Congrats to all authors, Buzz Baum's Lab Buzz Baum Andela Saric pnas.org/content/119/1/…

Happy new year! 🎈For us it has started with a new paper by Lena, Anne & co, together with Buzz Baum's Lab, on Physical mechanisms of ESCRT-III–driven cell division, in PNASNews: pnas.org/content/119/1/…. UCL IPLS UCL Laboratory for Molecular Cell Biology UCL Mathematical & Physical Sciences

Postdoctoral position available: Do you know what makes the nuclear envelope expand? We don’t either, but we are trying to find out! We have an appealing approach (and preliminary data...) using budding yeast. If you like genetics and cell biology, DM or email [email protected]
