Yildiz lab members are enjoying #BPS2023 ! Lots of great science and looking forward to the poster sessions on MT motors tomorrow!

[Ahmet Yildiz @Yildiz_Lab]

Visiting graduate student Eui-Jin also has a poster on Wednesday.

Yildiz lab is heading to #BPS2023. Check out Merve's talk on Sunday the 19th, describing our recent paper on cargo adaptor regulation of motor proteins!

[Ahmet Yildiz @Yildiz_Lab]

The gangs(mostly) all here! Hope everyone is enjoying BPS 2022. Make sure you come check out Amanda’s poster at tomorrows session (1:45) on nucleocapsid condensates and her talk about telomere LLPS at 5:30!!!

Belated graduation celebration for our newly minted Dr. @ferro_luke and Dr. Yasin Ezber. Farewell! Don't be strangers! 🎓🎓

Lab bonding with axe throwing. Turns out the Yildiz lab would fair pretty well in the zombie apocalypse.

Journal Club: The concept of a dynamic MT lattice is heating up. Severing enzymes and motors, Oh My!

Great work further dissecting the domains of kinesin in human disease. Work started when the first author was "just" an undergrad!

Mega journal club! Two great TRF2 papers showing its power in stem cell pluripotency and the tubulin code showing unique regulation of dynein in flagella.
