Figuring out fluorescence 🧐|

Super-resolution microscopy🌟 |smFRET🟢🔴| DNA-PAINT 🧬| Nanotechnology 🧪|
Postdoc in Biomolecular Nanodynamics lab at UniBasel 👩🏻‍🔬
Can one use 'Dark' or non-emissive dyes for #fast #Super-Resolution #fluorescence 🌟 #microscopy?

In this work, we show the first proof-of-concept of Dark-RET (DRET) #DNA-PAINT, using a dark donor with a bright acceptor, for cellular imaging in <30 seconds. Link ⬇️

Done ✅: the www.nanodynamicslab.nl website is no more: one year after our move from the Netherlands to Switzerland (the 'Highlands'? 🤔), it was time to take the old website down.

You still find us here, at our @unibas.ch home: schmid.chemie.unibas.ch/en/ (revamp underway).

I am super happy to share our latest article entitled "Decoding the molecular interplay of CD20 and therapeutic antibodies with fast volumetric nanoscopy", now published in Science www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
It was my postdoctoral work mit @sauer-lab.bsky.social Congrats to all the co-authors!

Check out a preprint from our lab! We've uncovered all possible speed imager sequences for DNA-PAINT. You can now do 10-plex imaging in just a few hours with simple Exchange-PAINT. 🚀📸 #DNApaint #SuperResolution

A welcome move to boost Indian research.
The Indian government has announced a giant deal with multiple publishers that will allow an estimated 18 million students, faculty, and researchers free access to nearly 13,000 journals through a single portal. scim.ag/49vrG8c

Fluorogenic binders would enable DyeCycling on regular coverslips – instead of the zero-mode waveguides that we use so far. We discuss the pros & cons of a range of fluorogenic systems in the context of #DyeCycling and #smFRET experiments.

Comments welcome!
