Very happy to share our preprint on visualizing the life cycle of Influenza viruses using single-molecule imaging! 🥳 We developed two techniques to visualize infections of unmodified influenza viruses in live cells from endosomal release to budding of new viruses.

I am very excited to share our latest work where we describe a new method to profile genome-wide chromatin transitions over time in single cells. Great collaborative effort with the van Oudenaarden group @hubrechtinstitute.bsky.social @oncodeinstitute.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41....
Retrospective and multifactorial single-cell profiling reveals sequential chromatin reorganization during X inactivation - Nature Cell Biology
Kefalopoulou, Rullens et al. develop Dam&ChIC to assay chromatin state at two different time points in the same cell. The method was used to study the reorganization of LADs during cell division a...

How do embryos ensure precise tissue patterning? It’s all about timing cell divisions! Our new preprint reveals how cell proliferation syncs with signaling oscillations to regulate precision of somite formation and growth. Check the full story: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Our paper is out! We delevoped a method to follow individual translating ribosomes for hours in living cells, and discovered that ribosomes are great friends and help each other in problematic situations:

Our paper on Stopless-ORF Circular RNAs (socRNAs) is now out in Cell. By high-res tracking and comparing translation by either single or multiple ribosomes, we find that ribosomes cooperate to overcome pausing to ensure fast and efficient translation

Our new paper is out: "Mapping the complete influenza A virus infection cycle through single vRNP imaging". Combining newly-developed single-molecule imaging approaches with in situ viral transcriptomics, we identify numerous non-canonical infection pathways.

Mapping the complete influenza A virus infection cycle through single vRNP imaging
Cell-to-cell heterogeneity is a common feature of viral infection that can generate enormous complexity, complicating understanding of infection progression and interpretation of differences between v...
