It was an honor to speak at @ChromoPalooza! In case you missed my talk: we can probe the material properties of centrosomes (green) using optically-induced flows. Fantastic collaboration with @KreysingLab.

What really matters for getting a faculty position? Here are the data, not just anecedotes.

Finally it's out! A great combination of EM and light microscopy showing that centrosomes concentrate soluble tubulin.

I'm hearing lots of great things about a certain colleague 🙂. @florianjug should tell everyone to do their post-doc at UT Southwestern!.

Talk by @RetoPaul at #LSFM18 was sooo amazing! In my point of view the most innovative optics contribution we saw so far. If this doesn’t make a splash. what would?

Protein phase separation followed by maturation may be a common mechanism for the formation of solid-like membrane-less organelles. Find out more in our latest review published this week in Trends in Biochemical Sciences:.

Most mammals, including humans, form centrosomes in the zygote. The wording of this abstract suggests otherwise. They need to change it.

Big oversight in this paper: the absence of centrosomes in early embryos is unique to rodents.
