Instructors at #EMBOBioImage all asked to introduce themselves with a fun fact and their favorite tools. Most have interpreted as favorite bioimage analysis tools, but Anna Kreshuk takes the opportunity to praise hammers and dishwashers. Respect.
Since we are on #EMBOBioImage@EMBLEvents virtually, we can only apply newly acquired powers of #GenerativeAI to imagine what is now going on there during pause of the evening Software lounge. 🤓
With the weather getting colder after a very hot weekend in Heidelberg, we've advanced from blobs to Christmas lights at #EMBOBioImage. Learning analysis for in situ transcriptomics with @CarolinaWahlby this morning.
Fun session in advanced blobs at the Advanced Methods in Bioimage Analysis course with @haesleinhuepf today @EMBOevents. Looking forward to more tomorrow. #EMBOBioImage
@PracheeAC I second the suggestion of Jhumpa Lahiri's 'Interpreter of Maladies' and will also add Ted Chiang's 'Exhalation' for original sci-fi short stories. Sci-fi isn't my go-to genre, but I loved Chiang's story collection.
@RossTAPedersen Congrats Ross! Super exciting to see this in print. Hope you get a moment to celebrate the final grad school paper and your amazingly productive PhD.
I’ve also been meaning to share my postdoc work, which I’m so proud to finally have out in the world @PNASNews. We used synthetic lipid bilayers to reconstitute actin-driven vesicle budding. Look at that pretty vesicle popping off! https://t.co/PPluE2eC31
Thanks to my co-authors Max Ferrin, Danielle Jorgens and @DavidGDrubin for all of their hard work on this research. It was an incredibly challenging project and it’s so rewarding to have finally carried it across the finish line together.
We hope that the assay can be used in the future to answer any number of questions about endocytosis. As just one example, I would have loved to dig into lipid composition more fully or to explore the role of cargo proteins, but alas a new job was calling.
