Last call for Les Houches! Apply now or never! ;) (ok, in 2 years again then) and share with your friends.

Tenure-track Position in Biophysics at Carnegie Mellon University, Department of Physics Location: Pittsburgh, PA Open Date: Sep 19, 2025 Description The Department of Physics at Carnegie Mellon University invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position in biophysics. The appointment is intended to be at the Assistant Professor level, but exceptional candidates at a higher level may also be considered. We seek outstanding candidates with a strong record in cellular and subcellular biophysics. Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to, uncovering how key characteristics of living systems arise from the interplay between supramolecular cellular structures, how the emergent cellular circuitry defines goals and enables robust decision making, and how metabolic resources are allocated. This encompasses understanding of how information is learned, stored, transduced, and processed across subcellular structures. Applicants with theoretical, data science, or experimental backgrounds within biological physics are encouraged to apply. The ideal candidate will strengthen and extend research programs of current biophysics faculty in the Department of Physics and collaborate with broader life science activities across many departments at CMU and the wider Pittsburgh area.

*This is for you, if you ever wanted to learn all about fluorescence markers & how to apply them for your biological research!*

PS: no fees this year, you just need to get there, that's all!

It was an amazing meeting! Thank you Ulrike (@uendesfelder.bsky.social), Mike (@heilemannlab.bsky.social), Ulrich and all! I’m still under the spell of the scientific insights and the warm, encouraging spirit of this community.💖

We are heading on with Laura Jaekel from the Endesfelder Lab @uendesfelder.bsky.social reporting EVE, a 'cool tool' to analyze event-based localization data #SMLMS2025 👏

Xavier Darzacq is our keynote speaker of today and takes us on an amazing journey through the cell nucleus with amazing single-molecule biology #SMLMS2025

Day #2 of #SMLMS2025 is taking off right now and introduced by Uli Kubitscheck👇🏻

First on stage is Maja Klevanski @majaklevanski.bsky.social from Heidelberg University presenting her great work on multiplexed super-resolution imaging of proteins and glycans in tissue #SMLMS2025

Jarno Mäkelä @jmakela.bsky.social from Aalto University shares his great work on single-molecule dynamics of heat shock proteins in E. coli #SMLMS2025 (unpublished work, so no images here)

Johannes Hohlbein @hohlbeinlab.bsky.social from Wageningen presenting his great work on the dynamics of the E. coli replication initiator DnaA #SMLMS2025

The Escherichia coli replication initiator DnaA is titrated on the chromosome - Nature Communications A DNA-binding protein, DnaA, regulates the initiation of chromosomal replication in bacteria. Here, Olivi et al. show that the bacterial chromosome sequesters DnaA in a growth rate-dependent manner, s...

The next presentation is by Qingru Li from TU Delft reporting really 'cool work' on cryo-4Pi single-molecule localization microscopy #SMLMS2025

Johannes Stein @jmstein.bsky.social from Harvard/Wyss reports impressive work on imaging the nuclear ultrastructure of cells using cryosections and DNA-PAINT #SMLMS2025

📢 Don’t forget to stop by our booth at #SMLMS2025!

We’re excited to share how our #DNAPAINT solutions and labeling kits can help you unlock nanoscale insights 🔬🧬

Danke @jmwiarda.bsky.social für diese Einordnung!
Und an alle anderen:
👉unbedingt lesenswert!

Thanks to the Fonds der Chemischen Industrie we can cover the accommodation costs of all participants giving a talk at youngSMLMS! And thanks to the Bonner Graduiertenzentrum youngSMLMS participation will also be free!
👉 Don’t miss the abstract submission deadline - it's this *Friday 4th of July*.

If you would like to be selected as a speaker from the abstracts, please use your chance until the end of the week to submit! 👇

We are happy to announce Christopher Grossert from Midel Photonics as one of the speakers in our youngSMLMS panel discussion! After finishing his PhD in Physics, he first worked in IT consulting and has co-founded the startup Midel Photonics four years ago where he now works in production and IT.

We are happy to announce Koen J.A. Martens @kjamartens.bsky.social from the ImPhys in Delft, Netherlands, as one of our workshop leaders! He has a background in single-molecule localization microscopy & single-particle tracking and is working on smart SR-imaging using e.g. event-based sensors.
