Working on self organization, cilia, and IFT. Cell biologist, CLEM and cryo-EM expert at Human Technopole. Was a serious fencer in a previous life. Love pottery!!! 🏺
Thank you @cellarchlab.com and @computingcaitie.bsky.social , I had a great time in Basel! #TeamTomo
Such a joy to host @gaiapigino.bsky.social as the keynote speaker of our annual @biozentrum.unibas.ch @unibas.ch symposium! It’s amazing how far Gaia and her team have pushed the IFT field. Nice exchange with @computingcaitie.bsky.social and the rest of our group. Thanks for visiting! #TeamTomo 🧪🧶🧬🔬

Immagine you could image two cellular structures in the same fluorescent channel and still reliably get them separated afterwards…
What would you do with this?

Now… what would you do if that also worked with 4 structures at once? 👇 #MicroSplit #preview🧵
