Impressive scaling of live-cell single-particle tracking to the throughput of >10^6 cells per day by David McSwiggen at al Eikon Therapeutics : biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Thanks so much to the eLife - the journal team for the nicely written eLife digest summarizing our recent findings that PFA fixation can both enhance and diminish the appearance of LLPS droplets in cells. elifesciences.org/articles/79903
Had fun writing this perspective for Journal of Molecular Biology with Oliver Mueller-Cajar, (twitterless?) Jorg Gsponer, Liam Holt, Shasha Chong and Ben Sabari. 🦠💧🤓 Special thanks to Kriwacki Lab and Shana Elbaum-Garfinkle for organizing! doi.org/10.1016/j.jmb.…
Many thanks to eLife - the journal and Judith Miné-Hattab for a nice eLife Insight article on our recent finding that PFA fixation can both enhance and diminish the appearance of phase separation in living cells!! elifesciences.org/articles/85671

Huge congrats to Shawn Yoshida, BMB Caltech G2 student in my lab for being awarded the U.S. National Science Foundation #GRFP!!! So well deserved!! 🥂🥂🥂🎉🎉🎉
My lab Caltech Chemistry & Chemical Engineering is #hiring! Looking for a postdoc to join us in sunny Pasadena and tackle questions related to IDPs, phase separation, and transcriptional control using diverse experimental approaches. Please RT. Details and how to apply: nature.com/naturecareers/… #jobs
Check out our new Review The Journal of Physical Chemistry on popular cell fixation methods! We discuss their abilities to faithfully preserve intracellular protein localizations and mechanisms underlying fixation artifacts. Kudos to Shawn Yoshida and Barun Maity!
