Our work on ab initio phasing #MicroED data is now published @naturemethods! Big thanks to @markherzik @_KevinCorbett for writing an awesome News & Views (and Mark for reviewing the work). Big thanks to @gonenlab @maxclabbers and Johan for their hard work! nature.com/articles/s4159…

@CorneliusGati @PaulLXavier @Penn @PennMedicine Congratulations!

Another fantastic results published in #JACS. This work shows a great potential of #microED for studying mineralogical and geological samples. ED data were acquired on our Glacios at CeNT UW. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Coming soon! Deep dish Eucharist. #Chicago #Pope

Congratulations to Judge Susan Crawford on her victory, and to the people of Wisconsin for electing a judge who believes in the rule of law and protecting our freedoms.

What holds your eye lens together? UCLA scientists along with now UB-HWI faculty found out! Using advanced microcrystal electron diffraction, they solved the structure of the abundant lens protein MP20. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Super stoked that this study is finally out Heroic effort from several people and of course #cryoem #MicroED #FIB 👍👍 Structure of the lens MP20 mediated adhesive junction | Nature Communications nature.com/articles/s4146…

Researchers from UCLA and UB-HWI have pushed the boundaries of electron crystallography, achieving sub-atomic resolution using energy-filtered #MicroED #CryoEM. This improves structural detail, advancing drug discovery and biomolecular research. nature.com/articles/s4146…

@IsraelF96135088 Yes

Jesus, are those hydrogens?

Now most folks cant tell the difference between an Xray diffraction pattern and #MicroED 😁 Behold 0.9Å 😍

Our latest work shows how energy filtering, PFIB, and direct electron detection unlock sub-atomic resolution for #MicroED! 🎯 Great work from @maxclabbers and JohanHattne back when I was with @gonenlab at @BC_UCLA. Excited to bring this capability to @UBuffalo!

Happy to share our manuscript on the in situ visualization of the copia retrotransposon in its final form today published in @CellCellPress cell.com/cell/fulltext/… . What’s new?

The 7th Challenges in Structural Biology Summit will be 9/9-12/25 at UCLAs Lake Arrowhead Resort. @BrentNannenga and I are taking nominations for speakers. Please write, self nominations are OK. Focus is on methods and challenges. Everyone speaks. Limited to 50 speakers/attendees

@gonenlab @HWMRI @UBuffalo Capitals cost extra 😂

@ScienceMick @HWMRI @UBuffalo Were capital letters out of stock? 🤣

I’m happy to share that @HWMRI has merged with @UBuffalo. My lab will stay at HWI, and my title is changing. I’m starting a new position as a tenure track Assistant Professor at the Jacob’s School of Medicine at the University at Buffalo!
