Our latest interview is with Manu Prakash PrakashLab. We discuss Manu’s career path and his scientific philosophy. Manu is one of our plenary speakers at #biologists100, where he’ll be talking about emerging technologies. journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/13…

Excited to share our work out in Current Biology ! We find that SKAP's binding to microtubules *reduces* friction at the kinetochore-microtubule interface and increases attachment stability under force. Congrats to postdoc Miquel miquel rosas salvans and all authors! With Caleb Rux

Congrats to Alexandra Long Alex Long, the second student from our lab to start their own lab! Her lab is in Univ. Kentucky's Biology Dept, studying the evolutionary cell biology & biophysics of cellular organization. Check it out! alonglab.org

Alex Long Alex was a postdoc with Tim Tim Stearns & Jessica Feldman

Excited to share NuMA preprint #1/2! We find that NuMA mechanically reinforces the spindle independently of its partner dynein. Congrats to student Nathan Cho who led the work, with Merve Aslan and Ahmet Yildiz. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to share NuMA preprint #2/2! We report structural and functional insights into how NuMA activates and regulates dynein at cell division. Congrats to Merve Aslan Ahmet Yildiz, Ennio d'Amico Carter Lab and Nathan Cho from our lab. And others inc. Maddie Blaauw from our lab.

ODTÜ GVO Kemerburgaz Bilim Okulu’ndan Foldscope Doğa Atölyesi. Biyoloji dersini uygulamalı olarak işleyen Kemerburgaz Bilim Okulu lise öğrencileri foldscope doğa atölyesi ile doğada numunelerini topladılar,preparatlarını hazırladılar ve foldscope mikroskoplarıyla keşfe çıktılar.

Foldscope Doğa Atölyesi ile hem öğrenen hem de çok eğlenen öğrencilerimize bu imkanı sunan okul müdürümüz Serhat Gökalp Bey, öğretmenimiz Ferhat Çelik Bey ve velilerimize teşekkür ederiz. #doğa #foldscope #keşif Foldscope PrakashLab

PrakashLab So good to see you guys pushing for access globally. It warms my heart.

This is wrong. America succeeded because we could attract the best and brightest from all over the world. It makes no sense, for example, to revoke a Japanese AI researcher’s visa because he had 2 speeding tickets (true story).

1. Yesterday, at a panel at Yale Law School, our lab was publicly accused of research misconduct. We take these accusations incredibly seriously. Yet, this story is far more troubling-our science was attacked to help bad-faith opportunists, who lied to students.

Adventures In Microscopy: Wild Carrot Flower 1/2 Mother’s Day flower #3 for my #Foldscope! Pollen, flower petals, and stigma. Who would have thought all of this exploration was possible with such a tiny flower? #FearlessMicroscopy #STEAM #ScienceIsBeautiful
