CryoET of microbes inside an animal organ? Yes it’s possible! Check out our new preprint showing how we did it! What an amazing collaboration with amazing scientists who made this possible!

Exciting news for the EM community in the Netherlands!

Scientists crack the case of the melting sea stars. It only took a decade Researchers in Washington and British Columbia say they have solved a deadly mystery that has stumped scientists for more than a decade.

Researchers say they've identified the pathogen behind one of the world’s biggest disease outbreaks: a wasting disease that affected billions of sea stars from Alaska to California. via @kuow.org

Exclusive: Famed protein structure competition nears end as NIH grant money runs out Agency silent on funding renewal for contest that inspired creation of AIs that predicted how proteins would fold

Speak up to prevent a major loss for the field. CASP, which helped shaping structural biology including AlphaFold is on the verge of shutting down. NIH funding has lapsed, UC Davis support ends and the core team is being let go. Painfully shortsighted.

I’m sure it filled some amazing science!
