I am excited to share a new study led by Shachar Givon & samina matan w/ Ohad Ben Shahar: Goldfish can learn to navigate a small robotic vehicle on land. We trained goldfish to drive a wheeled platform that reacts to the fish’s movement (authors.elsevier.com/a/1eEnubrwfBCwg).

Research on the molecules that seem to resolve inflammation, formally known as specialized pro-resolving mediators, has exploded over the last three decades—but some critics argue a large chunk of these studies may be based on flawed science. fcld.ly/pj0pmtf

I am excited beyond words that this is now out: tinyurl.com/3anxpbn5. After so many years of hard work, we can finally answer maaany questions about IFT… 🎉 Thanks Sam @stanuel02 Lacey, Helen Foster, the cryo-EM facility Human Technopole, and notably also #AlphaFold2! ❤️

Very excited to share the preprint of our new results in collaboration with Santen lab (Universität Saarland). We show Dynein and Kinesins can drive bidirectional vesicle transport in vitro with directional reversals, without regulators. dlvr.it/SZ9SM8

John, Sergio and I are delighted to share a review that was years in the making. Determinants, maintenance, and function of organellar pH. It has something for everyone! journals.physiology.org/doi/abs/10.115…

Our preprint is out in Nature Communications where we (with Santen Lab Universität Saarland) show that vesicles transported by dynein and kinesin exhibit bidirectional motility (with reversals, pauses and fast runs) without any regulators.

Finally published-here we show opposite polarity motors bound to vesicular cargo are sufficient for directional reversals. Motors engage in a brief tug-of-war which is resolved by stochastic fluctuations in the number of engaged dynein and kinesin motors diffusing on cargo.
