Our paper is now published @CurrentBiology!
With our unique method to live image fertilized mouse eggs, we highlighted the importance of Ca2+ oscillations in maintaining the spindle position to ensure asymmetric cell division. Thanks to all the authors!

Our work is finally out in @NatureSMB.
This study marks the last paper in my PhD, and I had the pleasure of co-leading this work with @nicklue8.
Enjoy the video summarizing our findings!

Our Basal Body Story is Now Online!
It’s been a long journey. Initially, we plan to understand how the basal body assembles, but along the way, we stumbled upon an unexpected opportunity to explore biogenesis as well.https://t.co/BYYyZ9rEVl

The MOSAIC reconfigurable microscope by @Eric_Betzig et al is finally out!
MOSAIC integrates multiple advanced imaging techniques including light-sheet, label-free, super-resolution, and multi-photon, all equipped with adaptive optics:

Despite the chaos and turmoil, our lab is blessed to have 3 new postdoctoral fellow openings and we would welcome scientists interested in:
- combining single-molecule studies with cryo-EM
- developing new protein design tools using bioinformatics and structure-based tools
- using protein design to develop novel genome-editing tools.
Please feel free to reach out to me: [email protected] with your CV and a few sentences on what you'd like to work on in the lab.
🔥 We caught SARS-CoV-2 in the act of membrane fusion—frame by frame! Using cryoET, we reveal the entire fusion sequence in near-native conditions—and how S2-targeting antibodies slam the brakes on it.

Pleased to share my latest review article with
@tandfonline, taking a deep dive into neuronal autophagy, how Huntingtin coordinates it, and how the process goes awry in Huntington’s disease.

Another wonderful collaboration with
@alanbrownhms lab. The Zhang lab together with @PolinaLishko lab (co-first author
@QingweiN) contribute the doublet microtubule structure from Crithidia fasciculata, a model organism that infects mosquitoes.
