@photobiolab #PreprintAlert! We are excited to share our new preprint reporting how can #FLIM #organoids can help better understanding #MNP #nanoplastic #pollution effects! We developed #FLIMbarcoding with #NIR #azabodipy #pristinenanoparticles, optimised #polarityreversion 👇

#JobAlert Excited about organoids, FLIM and iPSC-based 3D models recapitulating interactions of disease-associated microglia with neural cells in AD and MS as a postdoc at Ghent University? Apply with CV and 2 refs via email 'project MINDFUL' to me & @SVergult before 31-Aug!

Congrats with another milestone @JalinkLab! Looking forward to read it @FlImagin3_DN
Super happy that we have finally put this work out!!! 4 years in the making: We present – DynaScreen: an imaging (FRET-FLIM) based pooled CRISPR screening platform for studying “dynamic” phenotypes. short🧵below (1/n)

#FluorescenceFriday an image from our project on #FLIM-based assessment of #nanoplastic pollution with polarity-reverted small #intestinal #organoids. Immunofluorescence of ZO-1 (cyan) together with F-actin (green) and NPs (magenta). With @hang_zhouFLIM @FlImagin3_DN Stay safe!

Woah! Such an important study published in Nature today! Quick thread with some of their key figures! 🧵

Integrated Organoid Atlas benchmarks new protocols, even more impressive as a Highly Variable Cohort for comparison against perturbation and disease models: nature.com/articles/s4158… Lead by @_xuquan @HalleLennard Collaboration with @fabian_theis @TreutleinLab @IHB_Research
@skdh The various claims around LLMs automating scientific research are also not quite correct. Check: arxiv.org/abs/2502.16487
A map of mitochondrial biology reveals the energy landscape of the human brain Wonderful and fun collaboration with @MichelTdS and many others! @AnnaMonzel @OrianShirihai Ayelet Rosenberg was the courageous one who tackled this project, and Eugene Mosharov was the engine…
why investing in AI while we could invest in studying fungal intelligence?
“the cancer research community has abandoned deep thinking for deep sequencing” 🔥 🔥 🔥 Great read (even for those in other fields) to remind yourself not to fall in the trap of ignoring inconvenient inconsistencies as they may be telling you your paradigm is wrong.…
