1/n: How slowly can life progress? It’s obvious that cells cannot duplicate in a nanosecond. But is there a limit to how slowly cell's life can progress without stopping? We answered this for budding yeast by decreasing temperature [movie of yeast at 1 C]: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Why are some non-antibiotic drugs toxic to bacteria 💊☠️🦠? Do they work like standard #antibiotics (ABX)? Our latest work by @MarianaNoto published @ScienceMagazine addresses this fundamental question (1/n) science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

It's official. Thanks to the MIRA grant, my lab gets to live to fight another day (or five years!). We are now actively recruiting. Spread the word, and reach out if you are interested in doing a postdoc with me. One position is available jointly with Terry Hwa's lab. Exciting!

I am cautiously optimistic that my lab will have an open postdoc position in 2024. If you are potentially interested, please reach out. Or if you know somebody who might be interested, please connect us. My email is on our lab website sklab.science

What if we could learn cellular automata models of biological pattern formation directly from data? New preprint by Alex Richardson, Tibor Antal, @DrAlgernon, and myself: arxiv.org/abs/2310.14809

It turns out that sparkling water and raisins are *fascinating*. My daughter and I happened upon this effect playing together in the kitchen a long time ago, and I couldn't help but explore the system more deeply... 1/n arxiv.org/abs/2308.12927

Great postdoc program at an amazingly collaborative intellectual environment. Speaking from personal experience. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

The call of the ELBE Postdoctoral Fellows Program at the Center for Systems Biology Dresden @csbdresden @mpicbg @mpi_pks @tudresden_de is now open! Great opportunity for interdisciplinary research, apply here (deadline 25 Sept) csbdresden.de/join-us/as-a-p…

We found that this mechanism can lead to higher specificity and faster search, and analyze the "design principles" involved. Work led by Wencheng Ji @wencheng__ji, in collaboration with Ori Hachmo and Naama Barkai. arxiv.org/abs/2307.11180 3/3


Hyun Youk Reposted

Motivated by experiments in the Barkai lab @BarkaiLab on the role of Intrinsically Disordered Regions in the search process in eukaryotes, we considered the search process of a *polymer* with multiple, weak bindings to a region flanking the target site on the DNA. 2/3

Opportunities to work with an exceptional quantitative biologist, who speaks both theoretical and experimental languages

Our group (at Taipei, Taiwan) is looking for postdoc and research assistant! If you are interested in Q-bio, nonlinear physics or cellular modeling, please contact us: [tinyurl.com/mr332pwj] [tinyurl.com/5e7nvrw7]

Long-read RNA-seq promises to revolutionize RNA biology with  id'ing and quantifying full-length mRNA isoforms. However, be wary of read quality and interpretation. A tweetorial on our new preprint (1/6): biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #RNAseq #LongReadSequencing 🧬🔬

Just out in PNAS: how do fibroblasts respond to topological defects imposed on them? Modeling by @kurmankaiyrbek, great collaboration with @SerraLab_LC + Kirsten Endresen for the experiments! doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…

Very excited to share my first (co-)first author paper! We reveal GPCR domains at the plasma membrane (PM) of living cells & we find ways to modulate their spatial organisation. Interested? Here, is a thread 🧵rdcu.be/dg3bd

Totally agree fab @EMBO_YIP chromatin and transcription meeting. Presentations & discussions were great, I learned a lot. Thank you to Sebastian @marquardtlab , Daniel Messerschmidt for kicking it off - and let's keep the ball rolling!

PSFs are just Gaussians, right?? Not when your fluorophore💡is close to a nanoparticle 🟠! Excited to share our preprint in which we present a novel PSF-fitting approach for localization microscopy near nanoparticles.🥳 doi.org/10.48550/arXiv… Main findings below: [1/9]
