Nice, pretty good MT staining then :)
How much expanded?
Really love to see this tested on a larger scale!

Digital painting of a blue and white high-speed train on tracks angled diagonally across the frame. The background features a watercolour-style depiction of the EU flag with yellow stars on a blue base. Text reads "Europe rolls on at high speed" and the EU logo is in the bottom right corner.
A strong Europe that rolls on at high speed: not just possible. Necessary.
Efficient EU train services offer clean and smart ways to travel.
We want to bridge gaps in the EU's rail network with a new high-speed rail plan ↓

Your yearly reminder to acknowledge the core facilities you use and their staff scientists in your papers. These scientists are a crucial part of the scientific ecosystem and to continue to exist they need tangible credit for their work. Plus their associated expertise adds credibility to your work.
A study by @isglobal.org, with the collab of @bsc-cns.bsky.social, shows how urban and mobility decisions directly affect people’s health.
❌🚙For example, reducing traffic in Barcelona by 25% could save around 200 lives a year.

Bright and photostable yellow fluorescent proteins for extended imaging by François St-Pierre and team:

"Emissions from cycling can be more than 30x lower for each trip than driving a fossil fuel car, and about 10x lower than driving an electric one."
A young woman with blonde hair, wearing a white t-shirt, sits by the window of a train, smiling as she looks outside at a scenic coastal view. She leans on a black backpack placed on a small table, which is covered with an EU flag. The train interior has blue seats. Overlaying the image is bold white and yellow text that reads: 'APPLY FOR A FREE TRAVEL PASS!' In the bottom right corner, there is a small European Union emblem.
Applications for the next DiscoverEU round are now open 🚆
You could win a free 30-day train pass to explore Europe if you are...

Mike Sheetz (1946-2025) made immense contributions to our understanding of motor proteins, membrane biology, cytoskeleton and mechanobiology. Haguy Wolfenson, Gregory Giannone, and Martin Schwartz recall his life and work: rupress.org/jcb/article/...
Beautiful 🤩 I like the shadows of the microtubules and in the 'forest' of motors 🤗
Bonkers. French researcher on its way to a conference was denied US entry and his electronic equipment seized after computer searched and anti-Trmp *messages* found. Even if CNRS doesn't put the US on the travel black list (which they likely will do), it's clearly not safe to go there 😨

Also: no need of labelling tubulin thanks to IRM! Should really become more widely implemented on commercial scopes and their accompanying software.
Wanna study how proteins bind the GTP cap of microtubles? Make microtubules that mimic the cap!
