Now out on bioRxiv. 🥳My research on #cytokinesis, averaging thousands of #ExM images🔬, creating a dynamic atlas of cytokinesis 🦠⏳. Here's an animated sneak peek of what we found. Better resolution on bioRxiv😄 #PSFoftheGIF

Check the live stream of the Göttingen Expansion Forum 2025 if you're interested! I think the link changes every day will try to update. Program is here (pdf link): www.rizzoli-lab.de/wp-content/u...

#ExM turned 10 this year - just like #NanoTag! 🎉
Join us & the super-resolution community in Göttingen for the ExM Forum! 🔬Hear from our founder Felipe Opazo @opazo.bsky.social and CSO Steffen Frey on how NanoTag’s sdAb solutions empower nanoscopy & #multiplex imaging.

See you in Göttingen!

GPR161 mechanosensitivity at the primary cilium drives neuronal saltatory migration Primary cilium senses mechanical cues to regulate young neuron migration via GPR161 signaling.

🎉Excited to see my master’s work contributed to this amazing paper! 🎥 🧠

Congrats to all co-authors 👏
Grateful for my time in Dr. Isabelle Caillé & Pr. Alain Trembleau’s lab #IBPS. Isabelle’s passion for science will keep inspiring me ✨

Save the date!
March 2027 on beautiful lake Maggiore right outside #Milan, are you ready for #Cilia2027? 🥳
Stay tuned for more info!

Attention #microtubule and #centrosome fans!!! Here's another fantastic #openaccess #research #article in #CYTOSKELETON. LZTS2 Negatively Regulates Centrosomal CEP135 Levels and Microtubule Nucleation. Check it out here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

🚨 New preprint!
Using U-ExM + in situ cryo-ET, we show how C2CD3 builds an in-to-out radial architecture connecting the distal centriole lumen to its appendages. Great collab with @cellarchlab.com @chgenoud.bsky.social @stearnslab.bsky.social 🙌. #TeamTomo #UExM

World Ocean Day graphic including colourful scientific images of ocean plankton

It's #WorldOceanDay – this year’s theme is: ‘Wonder: sustain what sustains us’. One key force sustaining ocean life is microbes. With @embl.org TREC we explored this hidden universe along Europe's coasts, across water, sediment and soil to see how microbial life connects across ecosystems and biomes

Ahaha this is excellent !

During #mitosis, before assembling the mitotic spindle, the early mouse embryo lacking #centrosomes uses #actin rather than #microtubules for chromosome congression 👀👇🏼

Mesoscale regulation of microtubule-organizing centers by the E3 ligase TRIM37 Nature Structural & Molecular Biology, Published online: 25 May 2025; doi:10.1038/s41594-025-01540-6Here Yeow et al. present a model in which TRIM37 regulates microtubule-organizing centers through substrate-templated activation, providing a unifying mechanism for the control of mesoscale assemblies by the TRIM family of E3 ligases.

New online: Mesoscale regulation of microtubule-organizing centers by the E3 ligase TRIM37

Nice cool study, @syncellbiolab, @anubhav_dhar, @SuchetaDey69384, @MullickSan22454, @Nishaant_PB, @deepak_iisc and Angana. Wonderful to be collaborating with you on this work and looking at #actin #isoforms in #yeast and #mammalian_cells using #UExM.

On my way to the #NeuroFrance2025 in Montpellier ! Looking forward to see exciting science and present my recent work to the community

Join me May 20 @ 11 AM ET for a webinar with Bio-protocol!

I'll walk through our single-shot 20-fold expansion microscopy (20ExM) method + share the full protocol so you can try it too.

We dedicated this paper to Michel Bornens who passed away 3 years ago. He would have enjoyed this movie so much!
