Support the future of scientific discovery this Giving Season! Your gift helps power meetings, publications, and outreach that lift up the next generation of cell biologists. Give here: ascb.org/donate/

‼️@UTSWGradSchool will be at @ASCBiology #CellBio2025! ✅ Stop by the @UTSWMedCenter booth (Booth #1042) to meet our team, explore opportunities from summer programs to postdoc positions, and share your interests and goals. @CellUtsw @UTSWPostdocs @UTSWmstp @RTPatUTSW 🧫🔬🧪🧬

A perfect model for coming together this season: mouse skeletal muscles undergoing fusion, obviously. In this mesmerizing confocal microscopy video, nuclei are labeled in green & cell bodies are labeled in red. Credit: Yue Lu, Elizabeth Chen Lab, @UTSWMedCenter

"Actin Duet for Fusion" – our second video of muscle cell fusion is hosted on HHMI's Beautiful Biology! Thanks BB and congratulations to @YueluUTSW! #content-details" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">hhmi.org/beautifulbiolo…

What a great honor to serve! I look forward to working with friends and colleagues in ASCB to support our community and advocate for cell biology.

@RetoPaul @YueluUTSW Thanks Reto!

@EChenLab @YueluUTSW Wow, amazing imaging! Congrats!

Our live imaging video of muscle cell fusion is hosted on HHMI's Beautiful Biology! Thanks BB for selecting our video and congratulations to @YueluUTSW! hhmi.org/beautifulbiolo…

@ShubhraJ_Das Thanks! They are C2C12 cells expressing MyoD

@EChenLab @YueluUTSW wow, amazing. Which cell line is this, C2C12/L6/primary myocytes

Thanks to UT Southwestern CenterTimes Plus for featuring our work on how cells generate invasive protrusions to facilitate their fusion: utsouthwestern.edu/ctplus/stories… @NatureCellBio

💫NEW: @EChenLab & co reveal spatiotemporal coordination between 2 nucleation-promoting factors, WAVE & N-WASP, and 2 actin-bundling proteins, dynamin & WIP, in generating invasive protrusions at the #myoblast fusogenic synapse. 👉🏼rdcu.be/d0cTg nature.com/articles/s4155…

Congratulations to all prize winners and a special shout-out to our own Yue Lu for his poster award! #cshlfusion

@PauliGroup @deneke_v Fantastic work @PauliGroup! And beautiful talk at CSHL @deneke_v!

What an exciting and fun Cell & Membrane Fusion meeting that was! Huge thanks to @cshlmeetings for giving our community a beautiful new home. It was a great pleasure co-organizing it with @PauliGroup and Mark Rose. Look forward to coming back again @CSHL in two years! #cshlfusion

Cell & Membrane Fusion starts TONIGHT ☄️ use #cshlfusion this week for your posts! A special thank you to our organizers!

@JulieBrill5 Thank Julie! Enjoy!

@EChenLab @NatureCellBio Sounds awesome- looking forward to reading it!

Curious about how cells generate mechanically stiff invasive protrusions from branched actin filaments? Check out our paper published today in @NatureCellBio! Congratulations to Yue Lu and all co-authors for a beautiful piece of work! nature.com/articles/s4155…
