Hello #world, meet 1,000× Expansion Microscopy.
A small gel would grow to the size of an Olympic swimming pool, while amino-acid-scale distances become visible with ordinary light microscopy.
Led by Helena Hu from @eboyden3.bsky.social's lab, in collab with us.

I know that this might only concern my Greek friends and colleagues, and I know that it has nothing to do with my science… but I always so thrilled when I get to see my fiction in print — this time, a collection of 26 short stories about losing and finding affection at different life stages.

I am very happy (and proud) of our good friend and neighbor @mariekeoudelaar.bsky.social — and equally sad to see her and her lab leave Goettingen. A great hire for @mpi-ie.bsky.social!

Yours truly staring at a picture of the historical Sternwarte during Day 2 of the great CLEPIC2026 meeting, followed by @dewitlab.bsky.social, @radaiglesiaslab.bsky.social with amazing talks.
Our preprint on how variant U1 snRNAs control transcriptional and splicing homeostasis of hiPSCs is now officially out in @natcomms.nature.com and accessible via this link:

This has been the culmination of our work as part of the SPP1935 program funded by @dfg.de

And I also must thank the SPP1935 speakers, Niels Gehring and Utz Fischer, for supporting our project @uni-goettingen.de / @goettingen-campus.de via this Priority Program for 6 years, as well as @kurianlab.bsky.social, who has been my go-to person for anything RNA over more than 10 years now.
