This is actually pretty amazing! So sweeteners can indeed replace to a certain degree the sugar intake and have beneficial effects in life. Might as well have my energy drink 0% sugars today ๐Ÿ˜

SEPTIN9 locally activates the RhoGEF ARHGEF18 to promote early stages of mitochondrial fission, say Rachel Shannon, William Trimble and colleagues @sickkidsto.bsky.social @utoronto.ca: rupress.org/jcb/article/...

I also got to attend the #IUIS25
@iuis-online.bsky.social
conference, where I presented my work as a poster. I really like these immunology conferences in the context that we can see what is out there. It was both overwhelming and exciting, and gave me some ideas on what to do next. ๐Ÿ‘€

It was so inspiring to meet the people behind most septin papers, and it made me even more excited to keep digging into this topic. A big cheers to an amazing conference and such a hosting and friendly community, definitely willl not be the last! (cont)

Busy, busy summer. I had the amazing opportunity to attend the #SeptinSRC in beautiful Niagara Falls and give a short talk on the potential role of septins in B cells and antibody responses. It honestly felt a bit surreal as for the first time I I was the one who knew the least in the room ๐Ÿ˜ (cont)

COVID-19 vaccine type controls stromal reprogramming in draining lymph nodes Different COVID-19 vaccine formulations have distinct effects on the stromal cell landscape and function of draining lymph nodes.

Excited to share our new research on lymph node stromal cell responses to vaccines! Research performed in @salmilab.bsky.social with excellent collaborators.

Microtubule-driven cell shape changes and actomyosin flow synergize to position the centrosome Schaeffer et al. show that the centrosomal array of microtubules is positioned by the contraction of the actomyosin network and the reorganization of cell

US is going completely bonkers. Actually a bit spooked with all that is going on. + researchers getting detained at the borders is another huge red flag and others deported/losing funding. Wild, wild west.

Tired: work alone in your project.
Wired: Slowly convince everyone in the lab to work on your project and help you "finish"

10/10 reccomend ๐Ÿ˜†

A bittersweet moment for @sarahdezperez.bsky.social that in the end, we could make the most out of it! And of course, our awesome leader @mattilalab.bsky.social.
A big thanks to all our funders and specially @inflames-flagship.bsky.social ad Finnish Cultural Foundation for their continuous support.
