Back in London after two great days in Leeds! Thank you Takashi Ochi and Colin Johnson.

Very sad news.

@Andi_Microscopy and I structurally characterized beta cell cilia by #vEM and #UExM. It's out today in Nature Communications! We describe axoneme ultrastructural organization, as well as some novel physical contact between beta cell cilia and neurons. Link below! nature.com/articles/s4146…

Congratulations Viviana! Viviana Macarelli Florian T. Merkle PhD, Bluesky: @florianmerkle Cambridge University Great excuse to get together with some cilia peeps. We are missing a picture here… hopefully we can do that soon!

Thank you Urszula McClurg 🇺🇦&team for an amazing meeting! @UkCiliaNettwork! Thank you Anthony Roberts for a beautiful memorial for David Stephens. Thank you Pleasantine @Mill_lab, all the presenters and Elif Elif Nur Firat-Karalar for a fascinating keynote!

It's Giving Tuesday and I'm asking for donations to support the Angelman Syndrome Foundation (ASF). My daughter has AS. She's an absolutely joy, but will require 24/7 care for life. We have a match to get us to $90K but we need your help! Please R/T! angelman.org/giving-tuesday/

There is a growing tendency to view everything as a product to be sold, but science is different, it is not a product, it's a process requiring critical thinking and evidence. Thank you J Cell Science and Sara Morais da Silva for giving me a voice.

Many happy faces at our teaching series about #cilia dynamics, connecting the next generation of #cilia researchers within our FOR5547 and beyond! Thanks a lot, Nathalie Jurisch-Yaksi and janhansen

Thank you Oncogene Journal for this opportunity and very grateful to the reviewers, editors and colleagues for making this manuscript better. And, of course, thankful to my student, Rebecca Collinson, for following on my crazy ideas! nature.com/articles/s4138…

What puzzles me about cilia and cancer is how ciliary signals can promote of block cancer cells. Thank you Oncogene Journal, colleagues, reviewers and editors and hopefully we did a good job with this review. #cancer #cilia nature.com/articles/s4138…

A baby named KJ, who was born with a rare genetic disorder – CPS1 deficiency – is healed thanks to doctors at the Children's Hospital who administered the world’s first personalized gene-editing treatment. The research team used base editing, a gene-editing method invented by HHMI

Amazing meeting showcasing our work. Thank you Kate Hill 💙 for bringing us together!

So beautiful!

Andy Moore at HHMI | Janelia created this time-lapse video that shows the dynamic structure of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) within a kidney cell. As you can see, the ER is very densely packed near the nucleus, which is shown in bright orange color at the center of the cell and is

New research results for people with chronic kidney disease and acute kidney injur! 🎉 Dr Bryan Conway and his team have identified a group of cells in the kidney that emerge during chronic kidney disease, or after acute kidney injury, that lead to a loss of kidney function.
