Did you know you could still see your cells in the gel when you do #ExM?! 🤩🦠 Just one of many hacks and learnings from #panExM2023 workshop hosted by Bewersdorf Lab at Yale School of Medicine.

EMBO Septin 2021 workshop was a great meeting and wonderful introduction to the #septin community. Happy to illustrate the recent findings of the field with some #ExM 🔬for the Cytoskeleton Journal special issue 🧫

Preprint from Purba Kashyap online! Contributors include labs of @Campbell_FPs, @AndrewPlested, Marcus Taylor Tobias Stauber & long-term collaborator @NickelLab We can optogenetically release proteins in amounts compatible with single molecule imaging!🥰 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Finally it is out 😁. Our review on #expansion microscopy summarizes the key steps of sample prep and gives an overview of the different methods. Perfect for novices to the field 🧑🏽‍🔬

Working on this with @RiaThielhorn and Ewerslab fundamentally deepened my understanding of #ExM. I hope it will be useful for others who want to get started in #Expansion #Microscopy 🔬🦠journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/13…

Paper out: Gene encoded nanoparticles (GEMs) with 180 GFPs are cool tools to track in cells. GEMs reveal biophysical basis of infection, too. Using GPI-anchored nanobody receptors over 6 logs of affinity shows that adhesion energy alone explains uptake! rdcu.be/dFddO

Glad to see my PhD work from the Ewerslab lab out now in Nature Communications. Check it out if you want to know more about the biophysics behind lipid-mediated endocytosis.
