Because P. aeriginosa is frequently resistant to multiple antibiotics, a safe and effective vaccine would represent a major medical advance.

Looking forward to this!

Calling all NC biophysicists! We are pleased to host the Carolina Biophysics Symposium on the beautiful UNC Chapel Hill campus on November 9-10. Registration is now open! See details about the symposium here: https://t.co/h3AgwfdNgq

Please RT to help spread the word!

[Lisa Racki @LisaRacki]

What an inspiring workshop! Thank you organizers (@DameLab, @daniela_barilla, @OlivierEspeli, @GraingerLab, @Wiggins_Lab) and @lorentzcenter.

[Remus T. Dame @DameLab]

First day of #BioPhyChrom2023 , back at @lorentzcenter after 11 years. Great line-up of speakers. Looking forward to talks and discussions!

[Lisa Racki @LisaRacki]

Excited to share our new preprint, thankful for an amazing team: @_rchawla, Jenna Tom, @BoydTumara, @nani_grotjahn, @RaphaelPark7, and Ashok Deniz.

[Ravi Chawla @_rchawla]

Check out our new work on the divalent cation mediated interactions between two ancient and anionic biopolymers: polyphosphate and DNA. #biophysics #microbes #polymers

Congrats @_rchawla on this well-deserved award - wonderful to work with you.

[Lisa Racki @LisaRacki]

@weber_lab @CRC_CRC @lab_reyes Congrats Steph!

[Lisa Racki @LisaRacki]

How does polyphosphate affect the biophysical properties of starved cells? See our work, a great collaboration w/ @SulianaManley about how polyP tunes cytoplasmic+nucleoid dynamics. Congrats Sofia Magkiriadou, Amanda Habel, @SteppWilli, + Dianne Newman. https://t.co/xX6b99Ba4L

[Lisa Racki @LisaRacki]

Beautiful work, congrats!

[Danielle Grotjahn @nani_grotjahn]

Mitochondrial fission requires many factors… but how do these players assemble 🧩🧩 to constrict ✂️membranes?
🚨Check out our #teamtomo preprint w/ @theJensenLab to see how we captured ❄️🔬🧊 3D snapshots 📸 of dividing mitos and discovered more about this dynamic process!

[Lisa Racki @LisaRacki]

Wow - very exciting and inspiring work!

[Anthony Vecchiarelli @CellfOrganized]

Finally out! Fun collaboration with @JulieBiteenLab, Freddolino and Jacob labs. @UMich_MCDB

[Anthony Vecchiarelli @CellfOrganized]

All prokaryotic cell biologists should watch this talk.

[Lisa Racki @LisaRacki]

The lab’s first preprint is out! This manuscript is the result of a great collaboration with @The_JWilliamson . Congrats to authors @_rchawla, Steven Klupt, and Vadim Patsalo. https://t.co/Juw3kG18Km

[Lisa Racki @LisaRacki]

Fortunate to have the opportunity to work with Fangwei, and excited for the opening of the Si Lab next year!!!

[🦋Suckjoon Jun's lab @ Physics, UC San Diego @junlab_ucsd]

We are most proud of and happy for Fangwei Si (@sifangwei), who will start his lab in Carnegie Mellon Physics Fall 22’. Fangwei did not have a paper in CNS, but the search committee at CMU had smart people.

[Lisa Racki @LisaRacki]

Such fun hanging out with the Jun Lab! @junlab_ucsd

[🦋Suckjoon Jun's lab @ Physics, UC San Diego @junlab_ucsd]

How much we missed the “shoulder-to-shoulder”… with @LisaRacki ’s lab this week. (We are fully vaccinated.)

[Lisa Racki @LisaRacki]

Very cool!

[Megan Bergkessel @slow_going]

Happy to share our new publication! We wondered whether different Proteobacteria responded differently to total carbon starvation, so we set up a little "survival derby": https://t.co/TbRBIHqxtV

[Keren Lasker @LaskerKeren]

Join us @scrippsresearch.

We are hiring!

We study bacterial MLOs and use them to engineer synthetic compartments. Looking for talented postdocs and researchers to develop comp. and exp. assays, study cellular organization, and design condensates.

New paper in @SciReports with @ATorkamani & @Teijaro_Lab demonstrates the use of clickable sialic acid to identify human microbiome bacteria that harvest and display Neu5Ac on their own surface: https://t.co/VdkWqghbTq

[Megan Bergkessel @slow_going]

A technical tour de force and some very cool observations too! In Pseudomonas! What more could one ask for?

[Lacra Bintu @BintuLacra]

Second research article of the lab is out! To more nanobodies and other compact tools!

[Danielle Grotjahn @nani_grotjahn]

Honored to receive this prestigious Innovation grant award from @DamonRunyon Cancer Research Foundation. Looking forward to slicing open cancer cells and exposing their structural secrets! 🔬

[David Van Valen @davidvanvalen]

Glad to see our lab's first paper out! One huge step towards a BLAST for cellular image analysis.
