Linz’s tour de force to find proteins inside cells in #incellEM #teamtomo, CLEM compatible, generalizable and able to multiplex. Keep an eye out for a tweetorial soon!
hey #teamtomo if you are looking to add to your toolkit for molecular identification inside cells, our preprint is now out!

I'm extremely excited to announce that I've been promoted to Senior Group Leader (with tenure) at the @IMPvienna. A BIG thank you to every lab member for your fantastic work over the years, and to our wonderful colleagues, mentors, and friends for their continued support.
Congratulations to Clemens Plaschka, who was promoted to Senior Group Leader at the IMP. We are thrilled and look forward to Clemens steering his research as part of our community for many more years to come!

Last chance to register! Come and join us in Vienna, to discuss exciting new findings using cryo-EM and -ET.
Last chance to register to our this year Austrian cryoEM meeting. While speakers for abstract talks have been selected, we have some spots for posters left. We have extended the deadline until monday.

Our latest paper is out and we have just released an update of CryoVesNet code for automatic segmentation of synaptic vesicles github.com/Zuber-group/CryoV…. It now includes a Pyto wrapper to easily segment tethers and connectors. A lot of credits to @AmeeeeNeuro. #TeamTomo
In @JCellBiol, @AmeeeenNeuro @guiwitz @ben808080 et al. developed CryoVesNet, which enables accurate segmentation of synaptic vesicles in cryo-electron tomograms. This tool advances our understanding of synaptic function and synaptic vesicle pool dynamics. hubs.la/Q02VJSg60

Pleased to present our latest work, where we show that the cell-cell adhesion protein afadin coopts mechanically-regulated elements of the cadherin-catenin complex to drive cytoskeletal engagement. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Should be a great meeting for cytoskeletal enthusiasts this summer!
Interested in actin, intermediate filaments and microtubules? Then this FASEB conference is for you – the only one in North America focused on the cytoskeleton with fantastic speakers. July 13-17 2025 in Southbridge MA.
