How to work with your advisor(s)? Working effectively with your advisor is the no doubt the key to success of your research! However, junior grad students often don't have a clear idea on how to do so. Sharing some tips that I found useful. 👇

There are things that no one talks about after leaving a toxic workplace or toxic team 🧵. -the period of decompression you go through -the bad habits you have to unlearn -the closure that you never get 1/3

Surreal. Way too break preconceptions 😍

The best ones encourage you to take a break and go for a trip as much as they encourage you to work. And well nothing can beat delicious snacks 😋

Happy to share Avital Wagner’s recent paper nature.com/articles/s4146… showing how guanine crystal morphology is controlled by soft, intra-organelle templates, with many parallels to melanin morphogenesis Ben-Gurion University of the Negev Nature Communications #biomineralization אוניברסיטת בן-גוריון בנגב

An amazing work from Avital and the team, providing a wonderful insight in the world of biogenic Guanine crystals. And waiting for many more such mysteries to be uncovered by the group.

So excited to share this one - A tunable reflector enabling crustaceans to see but not be seen Science Magazine a fantastic collaboration between Keshet Shavit, Avital Wagner Ben-Gurion University of the Negev and J. Haataja Lukas Schertel Cambridge University and Val Altounian science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

2nd paper of the month. Some really exciting Science brewing below the waters of Eilat. Big congratulations to the whole team. Stay tuned for another blockbuster from the lab.

Beautiful piece. Optics, chemistry and biology; all in one. Keep rocking Tali Lemcoff

Happy to share our first paper of 2024 - a proof of concept showing structure determination of biogenic crystals from 3D Electron Diffraction pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac… Crystal Growth & Design / ACS ACS Publications Avital Wagner Noam Pinsk Laura Samperisi

Danke, Jürgen Klopp – nine years of making us dream.

Check out our new paper which rationalizes how molecular dopants (e.g., hypoxanthine) effect guanine crystal morphology. Dopants may be used to regulate the cross-sectional shapes of reflective biogenic crystals. Aurora Chemistry of Materials Ben-Gurion University of the Negev pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Love how Prakhar Gupta is using his platform to become the voice of India. This is important because most english speaking Indian sources westerns rely on are anti-India.

Very happy to see this collaborative work out J. Am. Chem. Soc. - Shashanka Indri Florian Dietrich and Matteo Salvalaglio use in situ cryo-EM and unbiased MD simulations to reveal the ‘particle attachment’ crystallization mechanism of guanine Ben-Gurion University of the Negev pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Crystallization by particle attachment—Many inorganic materials are known to crystallize through a "nonclassical" process involving particle attachment; however, our understanding of this mechanism at the molecular level is limited. Now, Indri, Salvalaglio Matteo Salvalaglio, Palmer,
