Who are the trainees at Yale Cell Biology and what are they working on? Check out our first Cell Biology Spotlights article to learn about Dr. Kimberly Morgan, a postdoc in the LusKing Lab @luskinglab.bsky.social , and her work imaging Nuclear Pore Complexes! (1/2) medicine.yale.edu/cellbio/news...
Oh my goodness what a fabulous idea!! Will pass this gem along. 😅
Thanks Maureen! ☺️
Generous support from @yalecellbiology.bsky.social @mcdb-yale.bsky.social @yalembb.bsky.social @nebiolabs.bsky.social and VWR/Avantor.
The organizers have wisely chosen the renowned Jan Lammerding from Cornell @lammerdinglab.bsky.social to give the keynote speech. Free to attend and always an inspiring event. Register now at: sites.google.com/view/nene202...
Interested in the nuclear envelope? Do you reside in the US northeast (or are willing to pay a visit)? Don't miss this year's NENE (northeast nuclear envelope) - a trainee-led regional meeting that brings together scientists at all levels for a day of exciting talks and discussions. June 5th @ Yale
Interested in cell-cell communication and microscopy? We are searching for a motivated postdoctoral researcher to join Münster! Please Apply! @uni-muenster.de
Interested in nuclear mechanobiology in the heart and skin? Then @ylleecellbio.bsky.social and I have the PhD for you @kingscollegelondon.bsky.social and A* Star in Singapore www.kcl.ac.uk/study-legacy...
The New York Research and Mentoring for Postbaccalaureates (NY-RaMP) at Hunter College logo shows connections between the fields of bioinformatics, cell biology, microbiology, biochemistry, chemical biology, and molecular biology in the style of a New York City subway map.
The New York Research and Mentoring for Postbaccalaureates (NY-RaMP) program is recruiting! If you are a current college senior or recent graduate interested in 1 year of paid scientific research in NYC, more info about NY-RaMP and the application due on Feb 18 is available at nyramp.org
Cartoon showing key challenges in evolutionary cell biology. This schematic illustrates four central challenges in the field: (1) integrating cell biology with evolutionary theory and experimental evolution, (2) bridging the genotype–phenotype gap, (3) identifying and developing new model systems, and (4) incorporating ecological context into evolutionary cell biology. Each quadrant highlights a conceptual hurdle that must be addressed to advance the discipline.
@gautamdey.bsky.social, @fritzlaylin.bsky.social, @alebenoit.bsky.social and @eelcotromer.bsky.social discuss how the field of evolutionary cell biology works to understand how cells evolve & diversify, highlighting current challenges & the future outlook.

Wow! Yay! The Senate just rejected Trump’s proposed science cuts, voting 82–15 to boost funding for NOAA, NASA, and the NSF. The bill already passed the House 397–28. Strong bipartisan support for science still exists.
🚨 Job Alert! 🚨
We have an opening at our Microscopy Core Facility in Turku 🇫🇮.
If you love imaging 🔬 and helping scientists succeed, we want you! 👇

Did you know that all nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are not the same? @luskinglab.bsky.social propose a new hypothesis for how nuclear mechanics may impact the compositional plasticity of NPCs with implications for tissue-specific diseases caused by NPC dysfunction.
