A family weekend getaway 👨‍👩‍👦‍👦🥾🍾

Started spiking on Google at around 9 PM yesterday, like people start blasting Mariah as soon as the kids go to bed Halloween night

I've had time to learn a lot about COPI and COPII but I just can't fathom why they skipped all the way to COP26? Classic nonsense biology naming convention.

Congratulations to newly minted Dr. Moni Chatterjeee! Such a beautifully and clearly presented body of work! Monideepa Chatterjee, PhD AndarawisPuri_Lab

Cell or Wreath?

Found a real life application of this problem today, not just imsge processing!

Steven's great work is now available as a preprint! Just a massive effort by him to detail how glycocalyx thickness acts as a regulator of immune-cell induced cytotoxicity.

For those who have used the RUSH system - does anyone have any reference as to where to get your hand on lentiviral variants? Or has everyone just been making their own in house if need be?

Have people had a chance to play around with StayGold yet? The KDEL-tagged version looked pretty promising for SIM based applications regardless of the dimerization, but haven't seen any additional reports of its use yet.

Did you think the Paszek group's work on mucin curvature generation at the plasma membrane was interesting? Ever wondered what these transmembrane mucins could be doing on their way to the cell surface? Come find me Dec 5th at #cellbio2022!

It’s molecular and cell biology group time!! 🍕🍺🔬🧬 Today: Marc Goudge and Misha Kazi from the Paszek lab Cornell Engineering & Doerr Lab Cornell Microbiology respectively!

Microscopy twitter! Has anyone had a chance to use CATCHFIRE yet? Looks incredibly promising from the size and reversibility, but I've been burned before buying specialized, expensive reagents.
