We are a #cellularengineering community converging colleagues from @ucsf @UCBerkeley @SFSU @IBMResearch @Stanford @exploratorium @SEP_UCSF @NSF_BIO @NSF #NSFfunded

(1/n) 2023 begins with new hopes & dreams. Restarting our #FrugalScience global adventure this year with an invitation to global cohort of problem solvers. Here is invitation for global community to engage - come solve hard problems with us with a little bit of play.

if you are interesting in quantitative cell biology and cellular engineering check out the presentations tomorrow at #ASCB2022 from the Center for Cellular Construction @C3STC

The fundamental importance of basic science nature.com/articles/d4158… This week's @Nature editorial

Even a single cell can learn, but this research was a collaboration among many cells in many brains. s/o to co-authors @AsaKalish @kathyacorreaa @scientistbrenda @AthenaUCSF @KbSci @mmslabodnick and more for all the brain cells working together to learn how cells learn. 10/n

Delighted to announce our new paper on single-celled learning, In which we show that the gradual habituation to mechanical stimulation seen in groups of Stentor results from step-like responses in individual cells. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Also, thank you to @c3STC for fostering wonderful collaborations between @UCSF and @SFSU. I had so much fun working on this project with FANTASTIC (!!!) Master’s and undergraduate students during the CCC summer course. 11/n

@Synchangel They are SO charismatic! We're starting a "Stentor in Every School" initiative to bring these cells to classrooms across SF, since kids seem to love Stentor and they are a gateway to exploring nature in general @kathyacorreaa @scientistbrenda @c3STC

Applications are NOW OPEN for the #CEMB summer undergrad research program #UExB! Encourage the sophomores and juniors you know to apply! Full details: cemb.upenn.edu/programs/educa… Want to learn more? Join us at two virtual info sessions on 11/16 & 11/22: bit.ly/CEMB_Informati…

Congratulations to all student presenters for completing their presentations for #2022NDiSTEM! You should all be SO proud of your hard work and dedication!

Get practical tips on how to make awesome microscopy figures in this webinar by Steve Royle @clathrin! Starting in just a few minutes.

How do cells heal injuries and repair wounds? Cutting cells is the first step to studying the extremely important process of wound healing! We are excited to share our recently published work where we cut Stentor coeruleus cells using fluid flow. (1/6)

We're featuring Dr. @JudithSimcox for #SeeingDiversity! This illustration was made by a talented summer intern, Sarah Nelson @RosyShrike and features plasma lipids and the tissues of production & uptake. The design was inspired by Navajo weaving.

Welcome to our 2022 Incoming @SFStateBIO Graduate Students! In person at last and ready to go. @SFSU 🤩

How can we use seaweed to combat climate change? How do we rethink scientific ethics after Theranos? And how does a single cell move 175 meters?! Reunited *in person* around great questions at the Center for Cellular Construction Annual Retreat @C3STC

CCC summer course student presentation on organelle scaling and geometry using soft xray tomography and Python based image analysis. Project led by @MaryMirvis @c3STC

Are you passionate about #SciArt and joining #CellBio2022? Submit an abstract to our subgroup "Science and Art: Bridging Two Creative Universes" by Aug 2 and join the amazing @janetiwasa @foodskop @ms_chirps Graham Johnson & David Schneider for a talk. Please RT! #AcademicTwitter

CCC summer course final presentations - student team developing methods to image peroxisomes in seaweed tissues collected from the wild @c3STC

CCC summer course final presentations - student group investigating organelle structure in skate retina / hiw cell architecture affects signal processing @c3STC

CCC summer course students “big ideas” pitch competition. @c3STC

A slide shared by @c3STC Summer Course students during this year's "Big Ideas" activity- one slide and 2 min to pitch your big idea. Stentor in Every School pitched by students from @DeepaHRajan and @WallaceUcsf Computation by Cells group This is the world I want to live in.
