The @embo.org ESCRT meeting was packed with membrane remodeling from every branch of the tree of life🌳. Some awesome science 🧪 highlights in the next posts 🧵. But a first impression… the venue!! Wow, Caux castle up a cogwheel train, overlooking Lac Léman! Perfect! 🌄 Thank you @rouxlab.bsky.social 🤗
