Cristae shaping and dynamics in mitochondrial function

Summary: Mitochondrial cristae are now known to be a dynamic compartment. Here, we discuss the current knowledge of cristae architecture and protein dynamics, together with methodological approaches for their investigation.

Finally, thanks to everyone who worked for months/years on this project, and to the funders that allowed to develop an ambitious new direction for the lab. A special thanks to Subhojit Roy for hooking me up with the bead-induced presynapses 🙌

For the long weekend.

#Mitochondria, powerhouse of the #cell were labeled (cyan) and it's possible to visualize how they reach every corner.

Happy #MicroscopyMonday!
Here’s a collage I made a while back highlighting Naegleria’s actin (cyan) and microtubule (orange) cytoskeletons. Naegleria only use microtubules to build a mitotic spindle, and when they transiently transform into a flagellated cell type.
Delightful #PaperacceptanceDay!!! More to come soon!!  

@mhoye Well, there is a political solution: in France, a law from 2016 allows (public) researchers to open-access their own articles. Almost all science from France ends up as PDF on https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/

Some French universities even **require** their staff to open-access everything.

The only thing an editor can ask is an embargo of max. 6 months (12 months for social sciences)

This was not easy, but there is a big "open science" movement in France.

Awesome! 🤩

The Dutch Universities and ICT infrastructure provider (SURF) are working on a pilot to provide Mastodon instances for the entire educational sector.

Many users are looking for an alternative to Twitter. SURF and Universities of the Netherlands are jointly exploring Mastodon as an open source platform with public values in mind.

ERC Scientific Council making steps towards evaluating the quality of scientific work over the reputation of the scientists or the journals they publish in:

- weigh the project proposal more than the past achievements of the applicant (!! not the case previously??)
- narrative description of contributions to the reseearch community

They also signed the Agreement on Reforming Research Assessment: https://coara.eu/agreement/the-agreement-full-text/

Welcome new Twitter migrators!

Somewhat new myself. Some insights you might appreciate:

➡️ It only appears “dead” here as long as you don’t follow a couple hundred people. Just follow, follow, follow… you can later be more selective!

➡️ There is no “algorithm” deciding what you see, so you need to boost toots to give them traction.

➡️ “Liking” is less of a thing here, so don’t be discouraged.

➡️ Ppl describe the content of attached images. I love this! It gives extra depth to your toot! See 👇👇👇
