Meet the preLighters: Vibha Singh - preLights

Together with the Node and FocalPlane, preLights organised SciCommConnect in June, an event dedicated to science communication that aimed to help researchers develop new skills and network with others who share their passion for scicomm. As part of the event, we held a three-minute research talk competition, featuring 12 outstanding presentations on diverse topics. In[...] Read More

#caveolae in all its shapes and forms 🀩

I am very excited to finally share my recent Research about #caveolae @naturecomms Here, we investigated how caveolae differ in their curvature and which Proteins are associated to the different shapes. Have a look πŸ‘‡

The molecular organization of differentially curved caveolae indicates bendable structural units at the plasma membrane - Nature Communications

Caveolae can bend and flatten, but how this is regulated is not well understood. Authors use correlative super-resolution light and electron microscopy to map the key proteins that mediate curvature of the caveolar coat.
