We've spent the last year building something at @humantechnopole.bsky.social that we think is genuinely needed: #AI that works across biological scales and data modalities, not just within them. A thread on what we're doing, why, and who we're looking for. A 🧵... 1/9

Proud and excited to share our work with the community! Helen @helenfoster.bsky.social Foster et al. study how #cilia axonemes are built. 👀 Don't miss the gorgeous and insightful movies by @margotriggi.bsky.social, they really show our discoveries in full action! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Very happy to say that our work on how axonemes are generated is now available on bioRxiv: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... - if you’ve ever wondered how the incredibly beautiful, complex structures within motile #cilia are constructed then this is for you!

Thank you @cellarchlab.com and @computingcaitie.bsky.social , I had a great time in Basel! #TeamTomo

Such a joy to host @gaiapigino.bsky.social as the keynote speaker of our annual @biozentrum.unibas.ch @unibas.ch symposium! It’s amazing how far Gaia and her team have pushed the IFT field. Nice exchange with @computingcaitie.bsky.social and the rest of our group. Thanks for visiting! #TeamTomo 🧪🧶🧬🔬

🚥 The Diez lab @stefandiezlab.bsky.social found that posttranslational modifications of tubulin regulate intraflagellar transport in cilia, helping to separate forward and reverse trains, preventing crashes and traffic jams! Published @naturecomms.bsky.social Read more ➡️ tud.link/v4khqh #CMCBnews

Immagine you could image two cellular structures in the same fluorescent channel and still reliably get them separated afterwards… What would you do with this? Now… what would you do if that also worked with 4 structures at once? 👇 #MicroSplit #preview🧵

Schematic overview on how MicroSpit operates. It can split superimposed structures in fluorescent image channels by using a suitably trained AI.

🚨🚨 MEGA JOB ALERT 🚨🚨 Independent Group Leader Positions in Computational Biology @humantechnopole.bsky.social! Are you ready to start your own lab? Do you know someone who is? Repost this + share with everyone who might want to know about it. Thanks!!! 🙏 More details below... check it out! 🧵 1/3
