A sharp review by Bob Glaeser. To remember: "[...]to distinguish sensible opinions from nonsense by insisting that an idea is reasonable only when it is founded on well-tested empirical results and established theoretical principles." #cryoem sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Looking for a deep dive into 2D classification in #cryoEM? These recent guide pages cover practical aspects & parameter choices when running these jobs in #CryoSPARC, along with the theory behind expectation maximization: guide.cryosparc.com/processing-dat… and guide.cryosparc.com/expectation-ma…

Lake Maracaibo in Venezuela is the most lightning-prone area on Earth. This region experiences lightning storms on average 297 days per year, totaling ~1.6 million lightning strikes annually.
1/ Hagfish slime is a deploy-on-demand hydrogel: tiny glands eject mucin vesicles + coiled protein “threads.” In seawater, vesicles burst, threads unspool, and a viscous mesh balloons to ~10,000x its original volume.

Superb description of FFT history. Every #cryoem aficionado uses FFT daily!
60 years ago this month, the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) was introduced by Cooley & Tukey (1965) - one of the most important algorithms in signal processing and data analysis. In 1805, Gauss - studying the orbits of asteroids Pallas and Juno - came up with a method to…
1/ Resilin is a disordered, elastomeric protein used by insects to store and release mechanical energy. Its resilience (~97%) makes it one of the most efficient biological springs known. Properties arise from sequence-level disorder + sparse crosslinking—not crystallinity. 🧵
