Happy New Year! Check out 👀our new protocol paper on the analysis of transcription factor-nucleosome interactions! Hope you find it useful 🔬🧬Was a pleasure to write up with you @wkobayashi.bsky.social and Kikuë Tachibana!
Join us for the Austrian Cryo-EM Symposium from Nov 11–12 at ISTA! Top speakers, cutting-edge cryo-EM, and a chance to explore Vienna & the ISTA campus. Register now 👉 cryoem-symposium.pages.ist.ac.at/registration/

New publication by ISTA scientists @aliciakmichael.bsky.social, @paloha.bsky.social, and collaborators made it to @cp-molcell.bsky.social's cover. The study demonstrates the potential of modern cryo-ET techniques and open data sharing to empower visual proteomics. More: bit.ly/49wzHdr
This one was quite the journey! The paper describing the #ChlamyDataset is finally out and on the cover of Mol Cell!
This beautiful rendering made by co-author @jessheebner.bsky.social and Holly Peterson shows an instance of mitochondrial fission found in the dataset 😍
[Maybe long thread ahead]
Nominations for the June Almeida award for Mid/Senior-Career Women in Cryo-EM are now open! Submit your nomination via this link www.biophysics.org/awards-fundi... by November 14th to recognize an exceptional woman in our community.
One month later and still thinking about the great science and conversations from the 8th Austrian Cryo-EM Symposium 🧊🔬
Huge thanks to all who joined - let’s make next year even bigger!

Come join us! It’s a great place to be!
Excited to announce I’m starting a new lab at @gmivienna.bsky.social (Vienna BioCentre) in Sept 2026
We study how carbon fixation is inherited and maintained in algae using cryo-ET, imaging, environmental sampling&more
Looking for people who want to build the lab together, get in touch!

Summer plans? Come join us in Crete to talk about “machines on genes” this June - what could be better?! ❤️ 🧬

Happy to share a protocol for analysis of TF-nucleosome interactions and cryo-EM structure determination in STAR Protocols. I had a great opportunity to describe this protocol with @aliciakmichael.bsky.social. Thank you very much, all!
