Playing with the new ccsb.scripps.edu/cellpaint/ today--SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine in blood plasma. Cobbled together coords for the PEG-lipid and rendered it in ccsb.scripps.edu/illustrate/, then "Browse Image" in "Create Ingredient" to import it into CellPAINT.

Let's see if this works. Putting together a little CellPAINT movie for my talk at #EMBOStructBio tomorrow. Try it yourself at ccsb.scripps.edu/cellpaint/ !

Trying to focus on my grad school application, but Corona news wins over my attention.

Distinct molecular pathways govern presynaptic homeostatic plasticity biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #bioRxiv

PhD application update: 1 applied, 1 offered! 😱Can't believe it!!! 😅

The importance of stupidity in scientific research. Great piece especially for graduate students and trainees. cob.silverchair-cdn.com/cob/content_pu…

Started my PhD a month ago and meeting new people from different backgrounds is the best!

We cannot directly visualize atoms in cells with #cryoEM, but we can do it using computer modeling. In our new article in Science Magazine, we show at the atomic level how nuclear pores constrict in cells upon depletion of energy: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Hiring 2 ERC-funded postdoctoral positions in 2022: Looking for audacious electrophysiologists to dissect brainstem circuits shaping motor sequences. Learn quant. methods for imaging, mapping circuits from brain to spinal cord, and zebrafish behavioral analysis: pls APPLY or RT!

Planning my virtual #cellBio2021 schedule and I want to attend almost everything! Looking forward to this week career and education components🎯

You can open your labs to scientists who left Ukraine due to war. Sign up here: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

Scientists from 79 countries work at our Institute, among them many from Ukraine and Russia. In reaction to the war in Ukraine, we open a special internship program for students from Ukraine: ist.ac.at/en/news/solida… #Ukraine #freedom #nowarinukraine #NoWar #ukrainianscientists

The Sixt Lab is now on Twitter!🎊🎊 Follow us to know more about #cellmigration in #immunecells and keep updated about our most recent work! A sneak peek of what we do: dendritic cells labeled with PIP3 sensor migrating under agarose. 📽️from our PhD student Nikola Canigova
