Wow, what an honor!
The @biophysicalsoc.bsky.social awards me the esteemed '2026 Kazuhiko Kinosita Award in Single-Molecule Biophysics'
'for groundbreaking contributions to the field of nanobiology and single-molecule biophysics, from nanopores to SMC molecular motors'.

Feel honored, very thankful!

Here's a new very exciting paper from our #CDlab: www.cell.com/cell-reports...

In an exemplary in vitro/in vivo study, 1st authors ‪@btanalikwu.bsky.social‬ & Alice Deshayes showed that dense linear protein arrays (e.g. telomeres) do stop loop-extruding SMCs!

Great collaboration with Marcand lab.

Wrapped up a GRC on Bacterial Cell Biology and Development last week in SNHU, New Hampshire.

A full week of talks on novel bacterial systems and new mechanistic details on eastablished systems.

Great chance to learn, connect with peers and enjoy science!

Just watched a podcast with Jiankui He, the first person to go. through with CRISPR editing in human babies in 2018.

He started a complex debate (both in productive and destructive ways) on ethics in science, future of gene editing and safety of current methods.

Legitmately thrilled to share our latest work, in which @fernpizza.bsky.social solved an experimental challenge in plasmid biology as old as the field: measuring how plasmids compete and evolve within individual cells!

Nice to see that Science(.org) supports and spreads awareness of the massive protests currently ongoing in Serbia!

Peaceful protests lead by Serbian University students (later joined by many others), have gathered more than 200 000 people on occasions!

Scientists rally in support of Serbia’s anticorruption protests
But some criticize “weak and formal” support for protests from scientific institutions

This is so real 🤣🤣

I do not know the explanation of this but definitely resonates very well…

What is the multiscale structure of chromatin condensates? How does it shape thermodynamic and material properties?

We address this at near-atomistic resolution🔥🔥🔥 using cryoET (Rosen & Villa labs, led by H Zhou), a new multiscale model (K Russell) and cryoET-guided sims (J Huertas & J Maristany)

Congrats to #CDlab graduate ‪Miloš Tišma for winning a Rubicon grant to pursue postdoc research on antibiotic resistance at Harvard Medical School!
Glad to receive the trust and recognition in being awarded a Dutch NWO Rubicon Fellowship for important work on antibiotic resistance.

I will be tackling this problem using a combination of biophysics, biochemistry and microbiology in Joe Loparo lab at Harvard Medical School (Dept. of BCMP).

About the price of a hefty GPU workstation, close to a student’s annual consumables cost in the lab, attendence to 5 conferences, full week of Krios data collection, cost of ~100 samples for proteomics data collection… so many things to better spend the money than these outrageous publishing fees.
oefff, paying 11253 euro as open access fee for publishing a single paper in Cell (@cp-cell.bsky.social) - that's an outrageous amount of money.

The truth is nobody should care how many protein coding genes there are. The gene is a useful abstraction that loses its utility when defined precisely enough to count.
Exactly how many protein-coding genes are there in the human genome? The truth is no one knows. The numbers change based on what database you use as reference.

I hope this can inspire and motivate someone that distances that are often expected to happen as you walk your path through science, do not have to be harmful to your relationships and friendships ☺️
Nice to be featured in @natureportfolio.bsky.social Career Column for our personal story on how we kept in touch over the years.

From undergrad -> MSc -> PhDs and beyond

We added science to our friendships and in turn our friendships to our science!
