Sketches of six stages of cytokinetic development of the intercellular bridge are illustrated with exmaple U-ExM fluorescence microscopy images. Septin2-GFP shown in green. Tubulin shown in magenta. A shortened workflow illustrates the image alignment and averaging process to generate average 2D reconstructions of cytokinetic stages.

It is out! 🦚 I recorded hundreds of #ExM 🔬images of cytokinetic bridges and averaged them into 6 stages. How? With help from our fantastic collaborators @zacsimile.bsky.social and @jonasries.bsky.social in Vienna 😇. Check out the full atlas here: doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17232370

Now out on bioRxiv. 🥳My research on #cytokinesis, averaging thousands of #ExM images🔬, creating a dynamic atlas of cytokinesis 🦠⏳. Here's an animated sneak peek of what we found. Better resolution on bioRxiv😄 #PSFoftheGIF

Check out our new MINFLUX Simulator: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... with @zacsimile.bsky.social. Realistic simulation of optics, mechanics, fluorophore dynamics and estimators. @abberior.rocks users can directly simulate sequence files.

Evaluating MINFLUX experimental performance in silico MINFLUX is a super-resolution microscopy technique with remarkable resolution for imaging and tracking. Its optical resolution is well understood under idealized conditions, but because of system comp...

MINFLUX works well in theory, but system and sample imperfections can lead to suboptimal resolution. To address this, @jonasries.bsky.social and I developed SimuFLUX: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1..., a realistic simulator to optimize MINFLUX experiments before samples go on the microscope.

After a few (expected) Deutsche Bahn glitches I am on my way to Vienna! Excited to visit @jonasries.bsky.social at @viennabiocenter.bsky.social tomorrow and @nartimsoole.bsky.social at ISTA on Thu! Come by and say hi and hear about what the lab has been up to! Also my first time ever in Vienna!

👏 Congrats to Sarah Schweighofer, postdoc with @jonasries.bsky.social, on being awarded a Marie Curie fellowship! She will explore how mitochondrial fragmentation is regulated during programmed cell death using super-resolution microscopy 🔬✨ Read more ➡️ tinyurl.com/2p8yacme

MINFLUX achieves molecular resolution with minimal photons - Nature Photonics The authors review MINFLUX super-resolution microscopy, outlining its advantages and limitations, recent progress, and an outlook for future developments.

By putting a donut between our faces and each article we read, we were able to extract more information than ever before about MINFLUX. You can read the new review article from @maxperutzlabs.bsky.social by Lukas Scheiderer, myself, and @jonasries.bsky.social at www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The Ries group at @maxperutzlabs.bsky.social wishes all of you Happy Holidays all the best for 2025!
