Khalil Joron, a very talented PhD student from my group, has won the prestigious 2025 #Clore fund #Scholarship for outstanding doctoral students. Khalil develops fluorescence-based tools for sensing microenvironmental properties of phase-separated bio-condensates. Big congrats, Khalil.
Team effort: another gem from Khalil Joron, and the collaboration with the Meshorer lab, Eden Mishne and Eran Meshorer @meshorer.bsky.social
What a fantastic workshop it was, celebrating 30 years to @picoquant.bsky.social
Thanks for assisting establishing and maintaining the single molecule spectroscopy community, and for many more years.
Thanks also for the chance to give a talk about iur recent photosynthesis-related work.
I'd like to thank my team members for this printed present.
PDRA in molecular etiology of Parkinson's disease.
We seek to characterize biomolecular species inducing disease-promoting cellular toxicity. Research involves single-molecule assays, advanced fluorescence imaging, mass-spectrometry and structural modeling

The problem: Single-molecule or single-particle fluorescence bursts are commonly used in confocal-based diffusing single-molecule spectroscopy in the test tube, but very hard to attain in live cells for the typical FP-tagged proteins at the interesting dense cellular regions.
The solution: use continuous photobleaching to expose the bursts, then acquire enough of them to expose their characteristics as a rare subpopulation, otherwise averaged-out in diffraction-limited pixels.

Single-molecule fluorescence bursts of FP-tagged proteins are achieved in live cells using a new method, BLISS, exposing a rare subpopulation of heterochromatin protein 1alpha dense clusters in undifferentiated embryonic stem cells.
