Absolutely stunning work from @sofie-dot-rec.bsky.social, make sure to check the thread and the preprint! 🤩🦠🔬

I’m very excited to share the first big project from my PhD (my first proper-first, yay!) where we use cryoET and a fun new flavour of CLEM to study the re-organisation of photosynthetic machinery of cyanobacteria growing beyond the red limit of light.

Somewhere, over the rainbow 🌈 (at the @biozentrum.unibas.ch), Sofie & Wojciech discovered how special cyanobacteria adapt to far-red light 🚨 by completely remodeling their photosynthetic proteins and membranes 🌱. An exquisite #TeamTomo study that spans scales and introduces hyperspectral CLEM. 🌎🌊🌾🔬🧪

Cool #TeamTomo tool from the @becklab.bsky.social for quantifying the thickness of native membranes. And a great use of two community resources:

1) The #ChlamyDataset: bsky.app/profile/life...

2) #MemBrain: bsky.app/profile/lore...

Thanks for this great tool. This is how #OpenScience works! 🔬🧪

#TeamTomo, if you're not using #Relion for #cryoET aka #tomography maybe you should be
AND! if you want more flexibility in your pipeline and a way to schedule jobs so you can work faster, now you can

Shawn Zheng leads Biohub’s work to streamline cryo-electron tomography, which images cells in 3D at near-atomic resolution.

His team’s AreTomoLive automates cryoET reconstruction and denoising in real time and cuts processing from months to days.

Wanna play with some Laser Phase Plate #TeamTomo data? 🧪👇
New on the #cryoET Data Portal: three datasets benchmarking the crossed laser phase plate (xLPP) ⚡

Data by Reza Paraan and the @biohub.org team with collaborators at UC Berkeley. Full credits at the end of the 🧵

Very nice #TeamTomo learning resource! Thank you for making it all publically available. Well done! 🧪🙌

For #teamtomo folks, I just pushed beta 6 for Surface Morphometrics. We're probably on our second to last beta before 2.0 full release. For adventurous types, check out the `statistics` branch, which has a LOT of new toys that will be coming in the next beta, including yml configurable stats!

Staged cryo-ET points to modular assembly: inner-junction components are present early, while outer dynein arm occupancy increases as gametogenesis proceeds. #teamtomo #Plasmodium

🎉 Out today in Cell: the paper I've been looking forward to sharing for a long time 🎉

We used cryo-ET to find a molecular machine nobody knew existed on the surface of a minimal bacterium, and worked out what it does.

thrilled to share that my main phd project is finally out in @natcomms.nature.com
we present high-resolution structures of RyR1 in native membranes across multiple functional states by both cryo-ET/StA #TeamTomo and SPA!

such a great reunion! much appreciated it all #teamtomo

... For the sponsoring the talk and poster prizes, that went to @fannyleblanc.bsky.social and Aurélien Gregor 🎊.
And huge thanks to @sofie-dot-rec.bsky.social, @phaips.vd.st and Imre Gonda for teaching the workshop on sample prep, data collection and processing on the 2nd day.

Fist lab retreat finally happened 🌴+🦠
We came for the science. We stayed for the lake, the secrets, and between Cadenabbia and Bellagio, we took the time to deeply talk about every project in a beautiful scenery — and how we want to do it together.
Good people. Good science. Good vibes.☀️❄️🔬 #TeamTomo

I am looking for a lab manager for my group that I will be starting at the @fmiscience.bsky.social in February! We will use in situ structural biology to investigate dynamic ciliary processes. More info here —> bsky.app/profile/comp... #cilia #teamtomo #proteomics #protistsky
📢 We’re hiring!
Join Caitlyn McCafferty’s (@computingcaitie.bsky.social) new group as Lab Manager and help shape lab operations, develop protocols and support research on the structure and dynamics of motile cilia. Apply by October 9: www.fmi.ch/education-ca...

MemBrain v2 is on @natmethods.nature.com now? I never had a @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social with 164 citations before😅 ...Which is also to say: Thank you to the amazing #TeamTomo community, many of whom not only beta tested, but also contributed diverse training data. This one belongs to all of us! 🤗🔬🧪

Exciting news! Our @erc.europa.eu StG project ARCHAEAOLOGY got funded 🎉
We’ll combine cryoET/EM, ExM & spatial omics to explore the subcellular organization of Asgard archaea.
Job ads coming soon! 🦠 ❄️ 🔬

I'd call this version 0.0.0. it's highly functional. Coded by parallel Claude agents and tested by running #Relion tutorials. This WebUI wraps #IsoNet2 into a Relion interface, internalizes picking jobs and ships securely in browser

Every electron counts⚛️! Researchers have determined the structure of the protein rubredoxin at an unprecedented 0.43 Ångström resolution. The method could now allow routine quantum crystallography of biological macromolecules.
