Excited to share that our study on virus-size gas-filled nanostructures is published in Advanced Materials and selected to be featured as one of the cover stories. Thanks to our collaborating labs, Richard Bouchard and @Han_Xiao2016, and all the heroes who conducted the research: @QionghuaS, @ZLi44to91, Yixian Wang, Matthew Meyer @RiceBioEM, Marc De Guzman, and Janie Lim. #gasvesicle onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Out today in @ISMEJournal thru extensive #TEM imaging, we show that a diversity of coral symbionts contain filamentous virus-like particles (fVLPs) see ⬇️for highlights

There is so much more to this story, including the role of #KEAP1 mutations and RNA reductions with #Nrf2 activation, so please check our our paper out now in the British Journal of Cancer (nature.com/articles/s41416-0…). Pictured above are #mitochondria from HNSCC cell lines. (3/x)

Remember tardigrades, the microorganisms that can survive in outer space? They have a protein, Dsup, which protects their DNA from x-rays and harsh environmental stressors. Maybe humans can exploit Dsup to protect our neurons from neurodegenerative diseases? 1/x

Here, we unfortunately discovered that Dsup promotes neurotoxicity and neurodegeneration in cortical neurons. Using electron microscopy, we discovered that Dsup promotes chromatin condensation. It was a pleasure working with Andrey Tsvetkov, Rocio Escarcega and the entire... 2/x
