Isotropic STED resolution (~70 nm) with a single objective using a new type of light modulator. "m-order vortex retarder" sounds like a Star Trek contraption but the images are stunning! arxiv.org/abs/2507.06718

Oil form droplets when mixed with alcohol, your monolayers dewet to form spherical aggregates, your friends dancing in a club form a circle, why?

I’m @challopeau.bsky.social and I will tell you about the origins and consequences of interfacial tension in tissues.

With a heavy heart I have decided not to attend a meeting in the US this June. I can’t act as if things are normal when science, universities, dissent & truth are all under threat. And I feel I can’t attend when there are scientists who are not able to travel to the US without fear of arrest.

#fluorescenceMonday another nice example of regionalization of #aECM, during development #celegans vulv(a), of one of the Cystein Cradle domain # ECM protein, a familiar shape in Marseille😉

How is extrusion of infected host cells related to ERK (extracellular signal-regulated kinase) activity?

Hi, I’m @hundsdorfer.bsky.social from the @effiebastounis.bsky.social lab. Let’s follow the recent development of bacterially-infected cell extrusion & mechanochemical ERK activity waves.

Intriguing #EM observation: in mouse type I hair cells, #SBF shows elongated mitochondria (yellow) apposed to the plasma membrane, a membrane contact site of 10 nm
