Excited to share that the first paper of my PhD work in @brangwynnelab is out! In this work @NatureComms, we focus on how condensates in the cell nucleus respond to mechanical deformation during cell confined migration, a process involved in cancer cell metastasis. (1/3)

@amsikking Volumetric imaging of 384 wells in a contact free format using an air lens. Importantly, the 3D imaging remains diffraction limited and distortion-free, despite the large refractive index mismatch from air to water.

Happy to share a new preprint! Ebola virus condensates don’t just contain viral RNA🧬 — they also capture and regulate host mRNAs , reshaping interferon responses and viral adaptation. #Virology #RNA #Condensates https://t.co/FEgR2m9WSp🧵👇

🧵1/14 Preprint thread! Can we predict a cell’s fate based on its dynamics? 🔮 Our new study unveils a framework for watching development unfold in real-time, revealing how a cell's shape and movement encode info about its future fate. 🔬📄 Preprint: https://t.co/84lDgRTJgc

I’m thrilled to share our preprint that uses deep learning to interrogate structure-function relationships in condensates! https://t.co/izhFI1ANXa In here, we ask: can AI read condensate biology from pictures alone? Turns out yes... see what we discover below! 🤖🧬🖼️ (1/10)

Our squid primary cell isolation protocol is now out in @STARProtocols ⭐️🦑🧫This protocol enables molecular studies of cephalopod biology, aging, and basic cell physiology. Thanks to @brangwynnelab @HaileyTanner26 @JoshRosenthal16 check it out here https://t.co/DRq99soazt 🤩

FINALLY! This was challenging to publish but we believe it is an important discovery: https://t.co/lN4KQqfIC6 💫Thanks to the amazing team 💫 @bis_was_here @Omar136661 @KyoohyunK Carsten Hoege Benjamin Lorton @RainerNikolay @MatthewKraushar @DShechter @GuckLab @VasilyZaburdaev

WORK! My lab currently have 5 (!) open positions for postdocs/PhD students for: -Nanopore protein sequencing -Archaeal CDV cell division -Microfluidics for synthetic cells -Nuclear Pore Complex -Origami mimics of peroxisomes Please apply! https://t.co/t4Yk0aZLHF RT=👍

The federal government’s demand of $1 billion from @UCLA would devastate the nation’s best public university, cut off life-saving care, halt tech and economic growth, and reduce educational access. Stand with UC to protect our students, staff, faculty and our vital mission:

“As a public university, we are stewards of taxpayer resources, and a payment of this scale would completely devastate our country’s greatest public university system as well as inflict great harm on our students and all Californians.” —UC President James B. Milliken

How the material properties of nucleoli relate to their ribosome-maturing function 📹 Holly H. Cheng et al @Princeton in @PNASNews 📷 https://t.co/maNRVLqlNO with @DrJohnAnkers

Excited to share our new preprint on @biorxivpreprint from our great team @EMBL! https://t.co/JaeFubrQWd If the nucleolus is liquid-like, why does it often appear irregularly shaped in proliferating mammalian cells? What controls the nucleolar shape? #PhaseSeparation #Nucleolus

Everyone working in a STEM field should read this - ‘writing is thinking’ https://t.co/pps0zyCURe

Grateful to have contributed to this piece- check out our new manuscript on how chromatin meshwork controls phase separation of nuclear condensates 🧬

Experimental biophysicist Joshua Shaevitz and quantitative biologist Britt Adamson have joined the Omenn-Darling Bioengineering Institute as associated faculty members. Welcome! More: https://t.co/qWyLaBu4F0

Chromatin heterogeneity modulates nuclear condensate dynamics and phase behavior. Congratulations Jing! Happy to have contributed in a small way to this interesting work! https://t.co/OZHRknyFV4

It was a pleasure working with the amazing physio students over the past two weeks! Such an honor to be part of this immersive scientific community @MBLScience ❤️

So proud of @XiangyiDing from the Starr-Luxton lab featured in @NatureMethods! The collaborative spirit she describes captures what we're creating through our @PaulGAllenFront supported work with @DanielStarr9 at @UCDavis #Frontierscience https://t.co/6HKygVxUZ6
