- Reposted by Ebrahim Lab🚨 Alarm!!! 🚨 AI/ML course for microscopy image analysis!!! 🧐 In 2026 at Janelia (@hhmijanelia.bsky.social), no tuition, housing and meals provided! Isn’t that borderline unbelievable?!? 20 students, ~14 TAs and lecturers 🗓️ June 4-18 2026 ✍️ Jan 15 2026 ✍️ 🔁 pls!! www.janelia.org/you-janelia/...

- Very excited to share the latest work from our lab in @insight.jci.org, highlighting a role for the #septin #cytoskeleton in protecting against "leaky gut", by recruiting non-muscle myosin II and stabilizing the tight junction. Credit to @dominikrobak.bsky.social for the stunning cover image!
- Reposted by Ebrahim LabCheck out our new preprint on the discovery of a molecular switch in NAC that mediates nascent chain sorting on the ribosome and prevents mitochondrial protein mistargeting by SRP. A great collaboration with the Shan Lab @Caltech and the Qi Lab @UVA: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
- Having seen your bingo card, we had to make it happen 😉! Thank you for highlighting our work @hankgreen.bsky.social ! 🙏🏽
- Early for #MicroscopyMonday: #Hemifusomes- Newly discovered ESCRT-independent intermediates of intraluminal vesicle and multivesicular body formation! In collaboration with the Kachar Lab at the NIH and out today in @natcomms.nature.com : rdcu.be/emtQu #cryoET #trafficking #organelle #hemifusion
- "Stereocilia"- actin-based skyscrapers that adorn sensory cells of our inner ear and covert vibrations into electrical signals—the first step in hearing and balance. #FluorescenceFriday

- From stem cell to structure- This human colonoid shows the self-organization of intestinal epithelial cells in 3D—nuclei in magenta, actin in green. A living miniature gut for your #FluorescenceFriday.
- Reposted by Ebrahim LabA dream come true: the first expansion microscopy images of C. flexa 🤩 Generated by Mylan & Uzuki who learned from the best (@hiralshah.bsky.social @gautamdey.bsky.social @dudinlab.bsky.social). We will learn so much from these!

- Reposted by Ebrahim LabTwo months left for FASEB Conference - Septins: Spatial regulators of cell biology Register now: events.faseb.org/event/septin... Come find out what these filaments do at the interface of the actin and microtubule cytoskeletons and cell membranes. You'll be hooked for life.
- Reposted by Ebrahim LabIs liver zonation conserved from mice to humans? And how does fibrosis affect zonation in patients? Now, these questions are answered using scDVP. Some collaborations are meant to be! @carolineweiss.bsky.social@frosenberger.bsky.social @mannlab.bsky.social@mlsb-borgwardt.bsky.social
