Finally!

I'm proud to be part of the ~0.5% that helped flip PA.

It's the coherent thoughts, lack of wannabe fascism, and compassion for me.

Yesterday CDC updated its guidance on cloth masks to add that they can protect the wearer as well as prevent that individual from infecting others. Our illustrated guide on face coverings offers best practices for personal protection. scientificamerican.com/article/how-to…

At this point it would be near impossible to convince me that GOP folks still supporting Trump and his stupid-coup actually give a damn about America and democracy.

Our paper in AJP-Heart. Thanks to PhD students Weizhen Li and Julie Han (Weizhen on the laptop while stuck in China, Julie on the left); project was started by OpticalComplex. #optogenetics, all-optical #electrophysiology, WB & qPCR in small hiPSC-CM samples.

During Wednesday's weekly briefing, Dr. Bogen shared a graphic she thought illustrated difficultly of maintaining pods or bubbles. Thank you to thoughtsofaphd for making the graphic and allowing us to continue to share it! Stay safe and be kind.

Damn, it's been a nice 24+ hours having a leader who respects science and isn't a white supremacist apologist.

If Redditors rallying GameStop is unacceptable market manipulation, what would you call it when greedy Wall Street bankers gambled away our entire economy in 2008 and faced no consequences?

Watching internet randos hatred for hedge funds supercede their disdain for GameStop is a sight to behold.

Our paper "#OptoGap" is finally out - it validates experimentally and computationally a quantitative method for electrical cell-cell coupling using #optogenetics. With Cookie Yu, Patrick M Boyle, OpticalComplex, John Williams, NataliaTrayanova nature.com/articles/s4159…

When you visit your dad and see he has a special home for a copy of your thesis 🥺

Ever wonder what would happen if tissue expansion marries Raman microscopy? Wonder no more! See how MAGNIFIERS unlock multiple new potentials on both techniques! A new door to Raman nanoscopy! Great collaboration with amazing Lixue Shi MinLab@ColumbiaUniv. Columbia Chemistry CMU Biological Sciences CMU Mellon College of Science

We reported a new nanofabrication method Science Magazine! Our lab collaborated with Shih-Chi Chen's lab CUHK Engineering to fabricate very finely detailed objects with femtosecond light sheets and nanoparticle-laden hydrogels. A thread. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

New Year, New Paper! Congrats everyone!

The press release: eurekalert.org/news-releases/… And our Magnify website is up! magnify.mcs.cmu.edu/news/ This is impossible without the heroic efforts of OpticalComplex Brendan Gallagher, the whole team and supports CMU Mellon College of Science CMU Biological Sciences NIH Common Fund 🙏

Unprecedented views of the interior of cells and other nanoscale structures are now possible thanks to innovations in expansion microscopy by Yongxin(Leon) Zhao's lab. cmu.edu/mcs/news-event…

The June issue is live nature.com/nbt/volumes/41… Our cover features an expansion microscopy technique developed by Klimas et al. that retains nucleic acids, proteins and lipids without the need for a separate anchoring step go.nature.com/3Iesy5L
