Just published: Community Spirit: Plasmids for All
How a decade of plasmid-wrangling at @TheSainsburyLab grew into a movement — and the unexpected friends now helping us open the doors wider.

Cargo adaptors use a handhold mechanism to engage with #myosin V for #organelle transport, say Hye Jee Hahn, Natalya Pashkova, Michael Cianfrocco, & Lois Weisman @umlifesciences

Excited to share our new preprint on @biorxivpreprint!
We show that USP28 mutations found in cancer block its interaction with 53BP1, disrupting p53 stabilization. Check out the full story...

How do organelles fit together inside a crowded cell? Answering this question requires a way to image many organelles in a whole cell at high resolution with high throughput. Our new preprint shows how to do this in yeast using soft x-ray tomography

Replying to @MaryHuda97
@MaryHuda97 et al. @CaydasiLab @kocuniversity show that asymmetric PI(3,5)P2 synthesis is crucial for vacuolar-pH asymmetry and provide insights into how the mother cell ages while the daughter cell is rejuvenated in budding yeast hubs.la/Q02Xx8N70

Over the moon to share that I’ve been elected as an @EMBO member! This wouldn't have been possible without my fantastic mentors and collaborators, passionate past and present team members @kocuniversity, funding from @EMBO_YIP, @ERC_Research, @Tubitak and support of my family.
Outstanding scientists elected to EMBO Membership: in EMBO’s 60th anniversary year, 100 new members and 20 associate members join the community

EMBO Self-Leadership Workshop Applications Are Now Open!
We are pleased to present the EMBO Self-Leadership Workshop for women in science, making its debut in Türkiye. Organized by our Gender Equality Office in collaboration with EMBO, this workshop offers women scientists a unique platform to enhance their self-leadership skills. Over 2.5 days, participants will explore self-awareness, self-confidence, and self-efficacy. Register by 30 November 2023. Find out more info and how to register here: geo.ku.edu.tr/embo-self-lead….
EMBO Liderlik Atölyesi Başvuruları Başladı!
Türkiye'de ilk kez gerçekleştirilecek EMBO Liderlik Atölyesi'ni üniversitemizde ağırlamaktan mutluluk duyuyoruz. Cinsiyet Eşitliği Ofisimiz tarafından EMBO iş birliğiyle düzenlenen bu atölye, kadın bilim insanlarına liderlik becerilerini geliştirme fırsatı sunuyor. Atölye kapsamında katılımcılar 2.5 gün boyunca öz farkındalık, özgüven ve öz yeterlilik konularını keşfedecekler. Son başvuru: 30 Kasım 2023. geo.ku.edu.tr/embo-self-lead….
