If you build it… they will not come..
Great idea for an article! Kudos!
Benefits of having collaborators visit, whooo!
These pods look so great, need to watch!
Candida albicans is usually hanging out with bacterial neighbors, so what happens to the fungus during co-culture?
The bacteria secrete metabolites that induce massive cell wall remodeling that change immune recognition and drug resistance. Read more in our new paper: www.cell.com/current-biol...
Today, our animation synthesizing decades of research on actin-mediated endocytosis in budding yeast was published:

The result of a fantastic Iwasa-Drubin lab collaboration.

I stopped doing reviews for Scientific Reports a long time ago as the standard of manuscript I was being sent was what I will politely describe as not great.
But this...
We just released a new major version of TrackMate (v8), the cell and organelle tracking plugin of Fiji.
It ships many new features, detailed below, but that are articulated around the following:
The FPbase spectra viewer just had it's biggest software refactor in 6 years. It *should* be largely invisible to the end user (hopefully just faster and less buggy). Please let me know if you find any issues as you use it!

I spent 3 months angrily bashing that table, without knowing what was inside!
Did you visit Carl Zeiss’s grave?
Wirshing, Lew et al. @mit.edu address how mothers partition growth equally among their buds in the multi-budding yeast Aureobasidium pullulans. Equal partitioning stems directly from effective equalization of #polarity sites. rupress.org/jcb/article/...
#Cytoskeleton #Development
Me and the #MycBio25 cohort had a great time today. Got to see an OpenScope in the wild @uctidm-mu.bsky.social and play for a whole day on an @zeiss-microscopy.bsky.social LSM980 - been 3 years since I’ve used a point scanner confocal on fungi
This is so cool!
What’s everyone’s open source code-free 3D visualisation tool for fluorescence microscopy? #Fiji
Cool beans! Thrilling to see your lab grow Mike!
Me and @caronjacobs.bsky.social are gearing up to deliver this workshop in a few weeks. Excited to discuss the almighty combo of pathogenic fungal cells and the fluorescence microscope!
See my post on web-based deployment of Fiji for image analysis workshops forum.image.sc/t/running-ia...
Advice / input appreciated.
Best microscopy based workshop/conference swag?
Absolutely thrilled to have been awarded an MRC Programme Grant to study the role of fungi in eczema together with @neil-gow.bsky.social, Helen Alexander and Carsten Flohr (both King's College London). 2 postdoc positions availble at jobs.exeter.ac.uk (Job References Q05626 and Q05627)

I was 3 when we last won the Scottish Cup, the same as my boy! Hope he doesn’t have to wait another 35 yrs!
Napoli are crowned Serie A champions.
Goals from Scott McTominay and Romelu Lukaku made sure of it on a dramatic final day
They finish just one point ahead of Inter to win the fourth league title in their history.
Great to have Lucian Duvenage from @mrccmm.bsky.social CapeTown ✈️ to do MYCOscopy w/ @balloulab.bsky.social in Emergomyces Africanus - an emerging fungal pathogen yeast that needs more Mycology bioimaging tools. Here are some Macropahges brimming with them (green yeast)
Read preprints. Cite preprints. Email people and tell them you loved their preprint. Email people you hated their preprint. Embrace preprints, preprints are good.
Anyone got experience of using Trello w/ TEAMS? Seems like a very nice integration for project tasks / progress contained within MS Office
Trying again.. any thoughts on below? #fluorescence
Awsome Awsome idea!
We’ve got some fungal hyphae that have us stumped
Could play into a generic filamentous episode (neuron peeps likely have solutions)
Cool/weird that ITV picked this up, usually home to some trashy stuff.
Delighted to announce that @erinweisbart.bsky.social and I have teamed up to create a new bioimage analysis video podcast called Ask Erin/Dear Beth - you can check it out at the link below! It will highlight common challenges in #bioimageanalysis, as well as our favorite solutions to them. (1/x)
