Excited to share our work on ErbB receptors published today @CellCellPress! Using multicolor, photostable UCNPs, we perform long-term (>15 min) single-particle tracking of EGFR, HER2, and HER3, enabling direct visualization of dimerization in live cells. cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

(1/13) Thread on @mazzocca_matteo @DomenicNarducci @SGrosseHolz @_jessematthias new preprint Q: how does chromatin move? Using MINFLUX, SPT & SRLCI, we track chromatin dynamics across 7 orders of magnitude in time to provide some answers biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We also identified stable, ligand-independent heterodimers among all three receptors. These insights offer a comprehensive ErbB interaction network, elucidating diverse dimerization mechanisms and implications for oncogenic signaling.

The 2026 Breakthrough Prize ceremony (“the Oscars for science”) celebrated the achievements of many remarkable scientists and their students and collaborators last weekend. Here’s the video of the show: youtu.be/_CZHeEyZBU0?si…. And here’s the segment in which Anne Hathaway and Alex Honnold (who climbed El Capitan free solo) presented the story of baby K.J.’s base editing treatment and introduced Kiran Musunuru, Rebecca Ahrens-Nicklas, Peter Marks, baby K.J. and his wonderful family, and myself: youtu.be/_CZHeEyZBU0?si…

Tenured! Yay! 🎉 Celebrated this milestone with my incredible lab family. I’m deeply grateful to all past and current members, together we built our cryo-ET program at Penn from the ground up and had a blast making exciting discoveries. And there is still so much more fun ahead!
