Beyond high affinity binders.
Sort of current dream in #structuralbio: A ligand binding to a protein with high affinity at a single site.
As a microscopist, I'd rather be interested in cooperative avidity binding (2+ low affinity binding sites at the target protein).
Are there tools to design that?

A new ultra-flat metalens, just one micron thick, enables high-quality, full-color imaging with large apertures, offering significant size and weight reductions for cameras and imaging systems. doi.org/g9bmxx
Ultra-flat optic pushes beyond what was previously thought possible
Cameras are everywhere. For over two centuries, these devices have grown increasingly popular and proven to be so useful, they have become an indispensable part of modern life.

and how do organoids "behave"? do they also pulse when growing?
Very happy that the first article from my postdoc work in the Tomancak lab is now published @PNAS! www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/.... We studied the self-organization of actin in aggregates made from Hydra cells. Thread below (1/9)

Curious examples in the thread
Biologist folk (especially in evolutionary biology and/or ecology, but it don’t matter):
Can you give me your favorite examples of trade offs in biology? Organism or system don’t matter. Primary literature or reviews preferred.
