🚨#cryoEM structures of MCT8/10 revealed in our lab by talented @Matteo_tassina! 🚨See how #thyroid hormone T4 is transported across membranes 👇. Great collaboration with Visser's lab @erasmusmcintl, thanks to @HumanTechnopole, @ERC_Research, @HorizonEU biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Our research group at @humantechnopole , supported by @ERC_Research aims to unravel the molecular mysteries of #thyroid hormone signalling. We seek for a passionate Postdoc to redefine paradigms in thyroid cell biology&disease 👉Apply now! lnkd.in/dbk_ePxH
@Andi_Microscopy and I structurally characterized beta cell cilia by #vEM and #UExM. It's out today in @NatureComms! We describe axoneme ultrastructural organization, as well as some novel physical contact between beta cell cilia and neurons. Link below! nature.com/articles/s4146…
Getting closer to deadline. DM me or my team for any info on what we do, how we do it and where we're heading. 🔬
Our TEaM is growing! We are looking for an EM Specialist with expertise in Volume EM applications 🦠🔬🧫 to join the CryoEM Unit at Human Technopole. Ask here or DM me! INFO and APPLY 👌: careers.humantechnopole.it/o/electron-mic…
The call for IRIBHM-ULB International PhD program 2024 has been launched :) Lots of good thyroid biology happening there! iribhmphd.ulb.be

Happy to welcome two new PostDocs @Matteo_tassina and @RamanadaneK into my group at @humantechnopole funded by @ERC_Research humantechnopole.it/en/research-gr… Let's open new fronts in #thyroid biology !

Fantabulous work from our lab-neighbours ! As always mind-blowing what these guys can do 🤯
Our work on the molecular structure of IFT trains now finally out in print. We submitted in summer of 2022 and many of you might know the story by now… still, truly thrilled to see it out and to have inspired the cover! 🤩 @humantechnopole doi.org/10.1038/s41594…
Our @samlacey745 @_Helen_Foster_ @GaiaPigino conquer the cover of @NatureSMB! Using #CryoET and structure prediction approaches, they reveal the molecular structure of #IFT protein complexes into anterograde transport of cargo into the cilia tip 👉 humantechnopole.it/en/publication…
The Faculty Days 2023 @humantechnopole are kicking off! Very excited about the interactions on campus in the next two days! 👍
Since people like 🇮🇹 salami slicing😉: I am very happy to share with you the first work of my lab @humantechnopole: Serialized On-grid Lift-In Sectioning for Tomography - SOLIST🔬❄️If you're into cryo-ET of 🧠 organoids, look no further! Work by Gaia Perone and Jasmien Nguyen!🎵
The Alfieri lab celebrates the human SIN3B paper! Many congratulations to all the authors! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 nature.com/articles/s4146…
Happy to share our latest paper on new FOXE1 variants in congenital hypo #thyroid ism @humantechnopole @ERC_Research. Thanks for the great collaboration Persani's group @TwittAuxologico with many others! doi.org/10.3389/fendo.…
