Happy to share the first paper in my PhD is published in JCB! It's my honor to work with amazing teammates! I really enjoy exploring mitochondrial protein import mechanism through cryo-ET!

Cytoplasmic #ribosomes on #mitochondria alter the local membrane environment for protein import, say Ya-Ting Chang, Danielle Grotjahn (@nanigrotjahn.bsky.social) @scripps.edu and colleagues: rupress.org/jcb/article/... #ProteinHomeostasis #Organelles #StructuralBiology #CryoET

This is, in large part, pandemic revenge. As far as these oligarchs are concerned, all science does is tell them stuff they cannot do. They can't keep spewing carbon. They can't keep businesses open as usual when millions are dying. They have concluded that research is the enemy of profit.

In a new Science study, cryo–electron tomography captures the in-cell architecture of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, illuminating how the coordinated action of molecular machines drives life’s fundamental energy conversion. Learn more in this week's issue: scim.ag/3FA3Ygq

Excellent piece on the DEAFENING SILENCE of universities in response to Trump's illegal cancellation of Columbia's funding. High time for unified action by university presidents which would, ideally, include red state powerhouses like Wash U, Ohio State, Baylor... www.thecrimson.com/article/2025...

We must learn from the past. We cannot remain silent in the face of authoritarian attacks on our peers, even if they have not yet come for us.
