Our story wouldn't be complete without sharing our full in situ #CryoET workflow for #malaria parasites, featuring some beautiful schizont-stage parasite-infected red blood cells in the #CryoFIB and one of our favorite tomograms!❄️🔬🧫#teamtomo More here👉tinyurl.com/5n96rkfm

This summer, we announced our #CryoEM Grant Program recipients, and are excited to now share more in-depth conversations with our Gold, Silver & Bronze award winners - Jess Heebner, Siyu Chen & Lisa Eshun-Wilson! See each of their interviews here: ter.li/uk637u

This work would not have been possible with out the talented Nathan Jentink, Carson Purnell, and Brianna Kable (all seemingly twitterless). And, of course, the great Sergei Grigoryev who has graciously guided us into the world of chromatin structure. What a fascinating topic!

Amazing stuff going on just one floor down from my lab! Beautiful work everyone.

We're all excited for you Jess! It's been awesome while it lasted, but you're off to bigger and better things. Can't wait to see where the future takes you!

Penn State is hiring a senior cryo-EM faculty member. Single Particle or Tomography. The campus is beautiful and the cryo-EM facility is full of amazing instrumentation. Think about it. Or mention it to a friend. psu.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/PSU_Acad…

Congrats to our two new #Humboldtians Humboldt-Stiftung Laura Posada from @PeterChemBio1 lab & Ryan Hylton from Stefan Raunser lab! They have received the prestigious Humboldt Research Fellowship

Excited to share our latest work published in PNASNews! Utilizing cryo-ET, we have successfully visualized the force that segments the nucleus. The whole story works out in an imaging-driven approach. #TEAMTOMO

Highly recommended.

Wish I could be there!

The "final form" of this beautiful paper is out in Nature Communications now! Hugely honored to be part of this with Manasi Iyer and ZucheroLab Particularly proud of the 3D serial section EM of myelin. Paper: link.springer.com/article/10.103…

That's quite the arsenal. Congrats!

If you are interested in joining my group to study how microtubule motors select their cargos (or vice versa) then please see the two adverts below. One is based on neuronal cell biology, the other on reconstitution and cryoEM. nature.com/naturecareers/… nature.com/naturecareers/…

Someone needs to scoop this guy up quick!

This was an awesome workshop. I'm lucky to have been a part of it. Hope to get an invite next year!

This delivery marks the dawn of a new era for cryo-ET at the Penn State College of Medicine. What should we mill into first?

🚨Members of #teamtomo!🚨 We invite you to submit abstracts to our ❄️🔬Cryo-electron Tomography: Progress and Potential session at Microscopy & Microanalysis (M&M) 2025! abstractscorecard.com/cfp/submit/log… Ben Barad

Ok...now that's pretty cool. Nice work everyone!

It's alive! Still a ways to go but both beams are on.

Turning the dials on our new Hydra pFIB for the first time today. Can't wait to get some cells into it, soon! Been freezing things down like mad for the past couple of weeks.
