The big one is out! So over the moon to see our latest work with Stéphane Vassilopoulos published in Science. Check out how we reveal the unique architecture of clathrin-coated pits and endocytosis at the axon initial segment: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
The actin-spectrin submembrane scaffold restricts endocytosis along proximal axons
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis has characteristic features in neuronal dendrites and presynapses, but how membrane proteins are internalized along the axon shaft remains unclear. We focused on clathrin...

Pancreatic is one of the deadliest cancers.
New paper shows personalized mRNA vaccines can induce durable T cells that attack pancreatic cancer, with 75% of patients cancer free at three years—far, far better than standard of care.

How do people feel about this new idea/method of citing previous literature? ‘Embedding’ a piece of an article rather than putting in a citation to the whole thing seems like it could have pluses and minuses.
Want to see a quick demo of the technology that might replace citations in scientific papers?
Goodbye citations, hello embeds.
