We have two passions: microtubules and microscopy

Wow, I've found a great video tutorial about #BigTrace plugin for @FijiSc, very clear and smooth. It includes many new recently added features.

Thanks, Johanna (don't know ur twitter handle)! The channel has many other useful videos, so like and subscribe

Interesting discovery that fura Ca+ fluorescent dyes are actually myosin inhibitors comparable to blebbistatin

[Vanderbilt School of Medicine Basic Sciences @VUBasicSciences]

In a recent perspective article, @magni_fye and Irina @KaverinaLab discuss insulin secretion hot spots, which are regions of clustered insulin secretion at the pancreatic β cell membrane.

Check out their @FrontCellDevBio article!

Job Opportunity: Postdoctoral fellow in cell biology: uncover the cell’s inner beauty, Kaverina Lab, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN https://t.co/5gJJiSWZ2k via @VUbretASPIRE

It's that time of year again- we all had a great time at the department CDB retreat last week! 🧪

[Kaverina Lab @KaverinaLab]

All, we have an opening for a postdoctoral fellow to study microtubule regulation of insulin secretion

[Vanderbilt School of Medicine Basic Sciences @VUBasicSciences]

High-throughput methods for analyzing single-cell secretion in beta cells did not exist, which prevented the application of CRISPR to study insulin secretion.

Two groups from @VanderbiltMPB and @VanderbiltCDB have now fixed this issue.

@hu_jerome or, and use glutaraldehyde in your fixing mix

[Kaverina Lab @KaverinaLab]

Just wide-field epifluorescence

[Kaverina Lab @KaverinaLab]

@hu_jerome (1) Big flat cells (2) good staining

Another annual lab pumpkin carving in the books!! We had a great time yesterday!! 👻🎃💀🕷🕸

[Kaverina Lab @KaverinaLab]

Happy #FluorescenceFriday friends! Check out these fiery microtubules from postdoc extraordinaire Avishkar!
