Membrane cytoskeleton, specifically septins. Nanobodies, superresolution. Developing microscopy assays for cell biology. We love complicated experiments! Opinions my own as scientist, parent, citizen.

It’s not perfect — I’ve certainly seen errors — but it’s kind of shockingly good. One might consider a donation.
