Our work is out! We are happy to share how #Palmitoylation controls #SARSCoV2 (#Covid19) #membrane #Cholesterol organization, and promotes #infection cell.com/developmental-…

We gladly invite you to attend our second mental health event in the series "Our community, Ourselves" Title: Nurturing wellbeing in academia When: November 18th, 14:15 We will have Dear Academia, Deborah Rupert, and Frida Rångtell deborahrupert.com/dear-academia/

Our lab's new paper (rdcu.be/cCL0H) is now out at @NatBME. We discovered that cancer cells lower their cortical stiffness, which impedes T cell-mediated cytotoxicity by decreasing T cell force at the immune synapse (doi.org/10.1038/s41551…) (1/)

A short review on cell-derived giant plasma membrane vesicles (GPMVs).. their recent applications on phase separation, lipidomics, drug delivery, lipid-protein interactions and membrane dynamics.. their limitations and potential future developments.. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

With Ilya Levental , we are organizing a special issue for Biophysical Journal "Membranes in Focus" open for microscopic, spectroscopic, and computational investigation of biomembranes. If you are at #bps2022 catch Ilya Levental to discuss. Submit your work by June 30th.

We are looking for a postdoc bioinformatician for very exciting single cell multiomics projects. Please spread the word. ki.varbi.com/position/appli…

My friend @DelemotteLab is preparing for a class on data-driven life sciences. The main aim is to teach how to read quantitative biology. Do you have a suggestion where large datasets are analyzed using some modeling/machine learning. A plus if the data/code is openly accessible

can't stop watching this! A fascinating example of dynamism inside a cell #microtubules

Very excited to see our work from my time as a PhD VDG Lab @ EPFL finally published! Big congratulations to the entire team for such a resilience! @gvdgoot @Vassily_13 Francisco Mesquita @homotopykat Luciano Abriata Abrami laurence #organelle #Endoplasmic_Reticulum #ER #acylation

“Women today still have to fight in an arena with unspoken rules and an agenda that are set by men” says Ylva Engström, Chair of the SciLifeLab board & Professor at @stockholmuniversity. #EmbraceEquity #IWD2023 #InternationalWomensDay

We are desperately looking for IL17RA-/- mice in Europe for a really cool gdT cell project. Would anyone know who might have them?

Our paper is now out! Cell damage regulates expression of lipid-modifying enzymes via alternative transcription. @SARSCoV2 exploits this to boost Spike #acylation #palmitoylation and generate more infectious #virions! Francisco Mesquita Abrami laurence nature.com/articles/s4146…

⚡️New preprint out! #Immunology #biophysics 1/ We show hidden functional immune cell states based on collective membrane properties, which are not directly visible via cell surface markers. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Happy to share the final work from my post-doc with MalmbergLab published in Cell Stem Cell today cell.com/cell-stem-cell… extensive 15-post-🧵 below

Happy to see our story on tolerance to inflammation antigens Nature Immunology nature.com/articles/s4159… It grew from a naive question I had at my first immunology class: if some self molecules are only induced by pathogen how does immune system distinguish them from foreign antigens?1/n
