TL;DR: We've identified more than 100 cases of apparent manipulation in Thermo Fisher Scientific's antibody verification data.

Very excited to be sharing our new paper, just out in Nature Cell Biology!
The big question we investigate: How do migrating cells put their front 🔴 and back 🔵 in the right place?
We’ve documented more than 100 instances of apparent data manipulation in Thermo’s catalog

It really is concerning how few people know that this is the case.

📣 The difference between replicable and not replicable is not itself scientifically replicable. 📣
New work with Erkan Buzbas, showing that verdicts such as "X% of results replicated" are based on an inferential machinery that doesn't work.

For me, the most maddening thing is when AI boosters, or detractors, all seem to agree that AlphaFold is an unmitigated good and useful tool showing the power of AI.
I disagree. It's hit and miss. And the misses are REALLY expensive. Especially when the conversation suggests it is ALL HIT.
We invented “triplet tumbling microscopy” (TTM) to track protein-protein interactions in living cells!
Tag your protein with GFP and see it interact with *untagged* binding partners

What if you got to work with some of your best friends on a science project? I can't publish how fun this was, but I can show you the data (🧵)! Last week, we posted our second neutrophil swarming paper to bioRxiv and I wanted to post my favorite videos here~

Trainees jump on this! Juan is an awesome human and he’s gonna do some amazing science ✨ Can’t wait to see what he gets up to!

Got to play around with Holotomographic imaging of muscle cells yesterday via the @uclastemcell.bsky.social imaging core and the results are pretty spectacular 🤩 You can see everything from mitochrondria to lamellipodia to macropinocytosis…with no labels!
Our paper is now out in Science! Super excited to share our discovery that #mitochondria #pearling is the elusive mechanism driving the regular distribution and inheritance of #mtDNA nucleoids 🧬 [1/6]
