Postdoc in the Pigino Lab @ HT. I enjoy long walks along microtubules and missing the sunset because I’m behind a microscope. She/her. @ https://teapaw.org/t.co/yirM86zik5

Beautiful work by my colleagues! 🍾
Harriet Saunders, Cyntha van de Berg, et al. show how ciliary tip proteins cooperate to make slow growing #microtubules in their new preprint! Together they form a structure that looks like a champagne cork in a #microtubule 😍 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Volumetric motor-PAINT was certainly fun to develop! And how many people can say they have a photo like this with the one and only @katpyxa? 💁🏼‍♀️

Proud of y’all and always happy to talk about microtubules to basically anyone who will listen 😉

I temporarily stepped out of the lab to do a deep dive into microtubule orientation, stability, PTMs, and MAPs 😎 frontiersin.org/articles/10.…

What a wonderful experience working with @TakahiroDeguch1 and @JonasRies - this is the cherry on top! And yes, seeing kinesin stepping firsthand made my undergrad dreams come true 💃🏼
Out in @ScienceMagazine today: We used MINFLUX to measure stepping of kinesin in living cells in 2D and 3D. Very cool work spearheaded by @TakahiroDeguch1 in my group in collaboration with @KapiteinLukas and @mkiwanski in Utrecht. science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

So glad I could be a part of this beautiful project spearheaded by Klara! It got me so excited about microtubule stability and lattice expansion and and and 💫
Klara Jansen, @mkiwanski, @KapiteinLukas et al. @UniUtrecht introduce StableMARK (Stable Microtubule Associated Rigor-Kinesin), a live-cell marker to visualize stable #microtubules. bit.ly/3KQroyK #Technology #Cytoskeleton

Our department collected 14.4 kg of @GBO_NL pipette tip inserts in only 1 month (pictured). 😱 What a shame that Greiner doesn't want to reuse them. Can anyone recommend any tip fill companies that do? #AcademicChatter @greenlabs_NL #sustainablescience

Excited that this work is online and can’t wait for what comes next! 🥳
Using MINFLUX, we could observe stepping of kinesin-1 in living neurons and cancer cells! Very cool work spearheaded by @TakahiroDeguch1 in my group in collaboration with @KapiteinLukas and @mkiwanski in Utrecht. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… (1/6)

Very happy to share our latest work, where we find an important role for Camsap and Ninein in localizing the MTOC vesicles in C. elegans dendrites to organize microtubules minus-end out.
PTRN-1/CAMSAP and NOCA-2/NINEIN are required for microtubule polarity in Caenorhabditis elegans dendrites biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… #biorxiv_cellbio

Very proud of this paper on precise, accurate, and high-speed tracking of single proteins to render #microtubule interaction potential in millisecond confinements. Closing the gap to MD simulations @ibarvik @matfyz with @IBT_CAS. @AdvSciNews bit.ly/3slKq4B

Very proud to present my work with @DrFlorianBerger modeling T cells in #cytosim, now online at @MBoCjournal We propose that dynein self-organizes to a cluster in the T cell immunological synapse, and can thus cause MT stalk formation ow.ly/UyDM50DWj69

New small plugin to color code Z-stacks (without projection), working with many LUTs and output to RGB/Composite github.com/ekatrukha/ZstackD… (illustration from the EB comet movie made by Boris Shneyer)

Very disappointed to only see a binary choice that is even required for the #DutchBiophysics . @NWO_Science I think you can do better and be more inclusive.
