It had been a treat to discuss science with giants like Bob Aldelstein and Ed Korn during my post-doc in the department. Their impact on the field of actomyosin cytoskeleton has been invaluable.
What makes for a great DNA-PAINT experiment? How does the fluorescent dye affect the image quality? And how can we use this to extract the most out of our samples?
Check out our paper in @NatureMethods to see what state-of-the-art DNA-PAINT can do for you!

1/2 Honored to share my journey as a first-gen scientist with @metricausa in @NatureMethods! Highlights:
• The power of diversity in STEM
• How perseverance overcomes doubts
• The impact of mentorship & support
Let's keep pushing for inclusive science! #DiversityInSTEM
Cells sense high lysosomal membrane tension - as can happen in some lysosomal storage disorders - and activate transcriptional programs to help tissues deal with this stress. Huge congratulations to @RuiqiCai@spencerSK1 and others! rdcu.be/dNyYD
Membrane availability determines the phagocytic capacity and for a while we wondered where all the extra membrane came from. Very interestingly, the Huse lab found a critical role of G proteins in the regulation of membrane availability: science.org/doi/10.1126/scii…
Our review 'Blebology:Priciples of bleb-based migration' is published 😀 This was a wonderful collaboration with @juanmagararc and Matthieu Piel which was born out of mutual love for blebs.

Very happy to share that our review article on Mechanical Properties of Human Tumour Tissues and their Implications for Cancer Development is out in @NatRevPhys. Huge congratulations to all the authors! nature.com/articles/s42254-0…
I’m thrilled to share our preprint: “Three-dimensional spatio-angular fluorescence microscopy with a polarized dual-view inverted selective-plane illumination microscope (pol-diSPIM)”, a new 3D take on fluorescence anisotropy. 🧵1/15
