Had a great time at the SMART International Symposium on Protein Sciences in Shenzhen last week.
Really impressed by the students, their projects, curiosity, and sharp Q&A questions.
What’s happening in China right now feels like a major shift in academic research (and clearly beyond).

Thanks!

Huntingtin binds and bundles F-actin!
Thrilled to team up with the Humbert (Sorbonne Université) and Song (KAIST) labs on this discovery.
We had a blast doing cryo-ET on this unexpected complex — and now so many new questions lie ahead!

Great work by Benjamin Springstein @huepfkiesel.bsky.social
and the lab of Martin Loose @nartimsoole.bsky.social.
Really stunning finding of the evolutionary repurposing of a DNA segregation machinery into a cell shape cytoskeletal system in cyanobacteria. Make sure to have a look!
