Quand'è che abbiamo smesso di essere uno stato sovrano?
Chi governa realmente in questo paese?
E chi tutela i cittadini che hanno il diritto di manifestare, scioperare senza la supervisione di uno stato straniero e criminale?

Quando finirà il caldo anomalo?
L'ondata di calore che da giorni sta opprimendo l'Italia e gran parte d'Europa rientra nei fenomeni estremi ampiamente previsti dai modelli climatici. E sia ben chiaro: nei prossimi anni tali eventi saranno più frequenti, intensi, duraturi e precoci. 1/5

One of the bits of #biochemistry that never ceases to mesmerize me is #fermentation. You take a bunch of yeasts and lactobacilli naturally present in the air, flour, water and your hands, you give them some love & carbs and BOOM: a soft, spongy loaf smelling like heaven 🥖💖🤤

So thrilled to share my first paper as a first author. In these in vitro reconstitutions we observe how purified #spindle #proteins interact with #microtubules using #TIRF #microscopy 🔬👩🏻🔬
Grateful to those magic brains of the @surreylab.bsky.social for all the support along the way! 🫂

New: Colombo et al. @surreylab.bsky.social show that NuMA is a mitotic dynein adaptor that binds and caps microtubule minus ends, explaining how dynein, NuMA, dynactin, and Lis1 focus microtubule minus ends at mitotic spindle poles https://buff.ly/41aj9F9

Se acabó! I finally got a #PhD 🎓🥂
4 years of tears & anxiety mixed with euphoria, the most genuine laughs & precious friendships. Fabulously chaotic.
Thanks to all those big little #proteins, inside my body and inside the #microscopy chambers 🧪🔬✨
