One fiducial to suit CLEM all! We present a bimodal endocytic probe for several 2D- & 3D-CLEM applications with Tokuyasu cryosections, resin-embedded material, and cryo-EM. A huge thanks to all the coauthors on Twitter judith klumperman Carter Lab Helen Foster Stuart Howes and beyond!
We are very excited to share our latest work, the high-resolution cryo-EM structure of the ex vivo cortical #microtubules from human parasite #Toxoplasma gondii. This work is in collaboration with David Sibley lab and Alan Brown lab. nature.com/articles/s4146…
Fascinating microtubule structures solved by sub-tomogram averaging using EMAN (Steve Ludtke and Muyuan Chen), imaging in chiulab stanford, segmentation with Segger! Identified tubulin proteins in different arrangements along with other components biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
European Research Council (ERC) council-funded #postdocjobs in my group Human Technopole to unravel the mysteries of #thyroid hormone regulation, using cell biology, light microscopy and #cryoEM ! Please apply here 👉 careers.humantechnopole.it/o/postdoctoral…. Feel free to get in touch by email for more details!
🚨Looking for a postdoc 🚨 Want to investigate the link between tubulin posttranslational modifications and #ciliopathies? European Research Council (ERC) Join us Human Technopole to discover how the #tubulincode regulates #cilia assembly, transport and mechanics. 👉 careers.humantechnopole.it/o/postdoc-posi…
We are looking for labs who got either Thermo’s iFLM or DELMIC’s METEOR installed on their Aquilos. Would love to reach out for honest feedback (feel free to PM or [email protected]). ☕️ or🍷(or both) in reward 😁!!!
Sam Lacey became one of my favourite scientists this morning - absolutely incredible work on IFT trains with Gaia Pigino Human Technopole and a beautifully clear presentation
Since people like 🇮🇹 salami slicing😉: I am very happy to share with you the first work of my lab Human Technopole: Serialized On-grid Lift-In Sectioning for Tomography - SOLIST🔬❄️If you're into cryo-ET of 🧠 organoids, look no further! Work by Gaia Perone and Jasmien Nguyen!🎵
Hey #teamtomo!Our 1st❄️🔬work Human Technopole is finally out!🥳nature.com/articles/s4159… Serialized On-grid Lift-In Sectioning for Tomography(SOLIST) enables a biopsy at the nanoscale and high-res❄️STA from🧍♀️organoids and🐭liver, brain and heart tissue!Thread by Gaia Perone below!
After thousands of microscope hours and several years of painstaking optimisation, Callie Glynn and I are very excited to share our latest manuscript. We outline our approach to investigate the molecular organisation within hippocampus tissue using cryo-ET.
@Andi_Microscopy and I structurally characterized beta cell cilia by #vEM and #UExM. It's out today in Nature Communications! We describe axoneme ultrastructural organization, as well as some novel physical contact between beta cell cilia and neurons. Link below! nature.com/articles/s4146…
