Ok, let's start this thing here with my favorite 3D animation connected to our recent paper on structure and interactions of beta cell primary cilia. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Still super ecited about cilia-axon contacts in the pancreas.

As a neuroscientist, I’d suggest there is a profound disconnect between what *some* computer scientists think is representative of “intelligence”, cognitive ability, or descriptions of consciousness from some in AI work.

LLMs are not how neural systems process information, nor how brains function.

Everything you wanted to know about #cilia & #signaling in one big beautiful poster format from field thought leaders @wachtenlab.bsky.social & @sorentc.bsky.social- from our just live @jcellsci.bsky.social Special Issue… 🤩🤩🤩
I’m excited to share this collaborative work with Prof. Dagmar Wachten (@wachtenlab.bsky.social), providing an accessible overview of primary cilia signalling and recent advances in cellular signaling in health and disease. Many thanks to Dagmar for a fantastic collaboration! doi.org/10.1242/jcs....

Ingenious concept - light sheet on serial sections by photo-etching the expanded hydrogel, layer by layer.

Photo-sectioning is quite slow, and the volumetric images are insanely large and complex, but the data look wonderful.

I found these immune cells just finished mitosis but their midbody is still yet to be resolved. How cool? If you zoom in to the midbody, you can see its classical shape just like in the textbooks. I love these little details.
