Come be our colleague. I have been in this Division for 27 years (4 as a postdoc and 23 as a PI). It is an amazing place to work, collaborate, and be inspired. If you are applying to be an Assistant or Associate Professor this Fall, don't miss this deadline.

Fred Hutch Basic Sciences Division@basicsci.fredhutch.org · 2d ago

Join @FredHutch.org's Basic Sciences Division as an Assistant or Associate Professor and help shape the future of fundamental biology. We welcome applicants whose work will complement, extend, or bring new directions to the division.

Introducing CsMT: A new CryoSPARC workflow for high-resolution microtubule reconstruction based on novel PF-pair classification! You can reconstruct MTs entirely in CryoSPARC—zero custom scripts needed. Inspired & built through a fantastic collaboration with the Cianfrocco lab! tinyurl.com/kdpm86tw

Huge congratulations to Professor Jacob Tsimerman of the University of Toronto on receiving the Fields Medal — one of the highest honours in mathematics. Nearly a century after Canadian mathematician J.C. Fields established this award in Toronto, it comes home.

🚀 Can automation solve preferred orientation in your #cryoEM datasets? After automating processing across 21 GPCR datasets in #CryoSPARC, we updated the workflow to be even more robust to preferred orientation, achieving improved map quality over manual processing. Read more 👉 bit.ly/3RyOIGG

Probably the best thing I ever posted on that other site, wish I could permanently transplant it to my timeline here.

For years, the #cryoEM community viewed ~50 kDa as the practical lower size limit for SPA. This was challenged by Kim et al., who introduced the HR-HAIR method and demonstrated structure determination of proteins below 30 kDa using #CryoSPARC. Read more 👉 bit.ly/3RHMxAt

Long shot, but, with lots of labs turning from crystallography to cryo-EM I’m wondering if anyone knows of labs potentially looking to offload some of their old crystallography supplies to a PUI with potential screening hits and really eager students but nothing to harvest with, etc.?
