View #CDLab on Twitter Nice: our #CDlab @tudelft PhD student @RomanBarth2 explaining her majesty queen Maxima of the Netherlands and European commissioner @GabrielMariya our efforts to build chromosomes bottom up, which is important to making synthetic cells @SynCellEU.

Latest #CDlab paper online at @biorxivpreprint now: https://t.co/a1v311uiR7 Here, Sabrina Meindlhumer, @jacobkers and me developed a toolbox to quantitatively analyze surface wave patterns of Min proteins – the fascinating Turing patterns that bacteria use in cell division. https://t.co/qm82H7w4ql



Probing nanomotion of single bacteria with graphene drums! Latest #CDlab paper online in @NatureNano: https://t.co/ygZq6qqTK2 Great collaboration led by Farbod Alijani. Special congrats to 1st authors Irek Roslon and
@AleksandreJapa
for a great job done! https://t.co/NZCdKQvX9o



#dtv Weet iemand een leuke groepsaccomodatie voor 25 mensen in Terschelling in september? (In een discussie over klimaat en (niet-)noodzakelijk reizen koos ons #CDlab vandaag om ons lab-retreat in NL te houden ipv op een zonnige zuidelijke bestemming op vliegafstand).
Great new paper in @MolecularCell by @FachinettiLab, to which our #CDlab postdoc @AleksandreJapa contributed major AFM imaging: https://t.co/YhuYMMg95F All about centromeric DNA that self-organizes into hairpins, and CENP-B proteins that reshape centromeres by making DNA loops. https://t.co/VIYFRffT4Z



The latest #CDlab publication is a book chapter by @Wayne_YangWW and myself in a new book on “Single Molecule Sensing Beyond Fluorescence” that was edited by @BowenWarwick, @FrankVollmerLAB, and @ReuvenGordon https://t.co/cbDfYGrICz



Latest #CDlab paper online: “The archaeal division protein CdvB1 assembles into polymers that are depolymerized by CdvC” https://t.co/XcQ8nDL1yg With TEM & biochemistry, @abejota94 did an in vitro study of CdvB1, core protein of the unique Cdv cell division machinery of archaea. https://t.co/xwTkIWZqJn



Congrats JK! It is wonderful to see all those former #CDlab members find positions all around the world, and build their own groups. https://t.co/5Z1sTThn1L
What you can do to help Ukraine in this war? Here’s some answers by @sergiipud (former #CDlab member, now assistant professor at @UTwente) spoken at a demonstration in Enschede today. #StopRussia #StopWar #StandForUkraine https://t.co/Rf2bDJoROm
And now, on to curling with the #CDlab… https://t.co/0nmhQiA2pt
New paper out in @NatureProtocols! https://t.co/lSeubRPR2A Here, @KevinDWhitley of @seamus_holden lab provides a
practical guide to implement 2 great new methods for high-resolution bacterial microscopy. #measurethemstandingup
Our #CDlab contributed mostly nanofabrication. https://t.co/jAhqlXPBfg



@nanoscale_rsc @mitashabharadw NB Today’s paper was the result of a brainstorm idea, 8 years back at a group retreat, by @felixhol (then in our #CDlab, now PI at Pasteur). A simple but inspiring idea
which started a project
that turned out -of course- to be less easy than foreseen
but with a nice result today https://t.co/xZ3Zumy6uq



Latest #CDlab paper online in @nanoscale_rsc:
‘CRISPR-dCas9 based DNA detection scheme for diagnostics in resource-limited settings’ https://t.co/ucMVImm3Oy Here, Michel Bengtson, @mitashabharadw, Oskar Franch, and others show a new cheap Crispr-based test for neglected diseases https://t.co/CMzRO9vfVu



Hier wat gave ideeën voor concrete kleinschalige acties om te werken aan een meer sustainable toekomst – van @sciforfuture_NL, een groep promovendi van @TUDelft met o.a. promovendus Nils van ons #CDlab. https://t.co/qYfntFQynh
Nice ‘research highlight’ perspective in @naturemethods on the work towards single-molecule protein sequencing from our #CDlab and @MagliaGiovanni https://t.co/7hzxjRGD7Q https://t.co/N33tE54Xz3



Now out in @NAR_Open:
Our #CDlab paper that resolves the ~30 nm single steps that SMC proteins make during DNA loop extrusion: https://t.co/32qRnljhqw Title says it all:
Condensin extrudes DNA loops in steps up to hundreds of base pairs that are generated by ATP binding events. https://t.co/Ag2VbbgwlH



ànd yet another #CDlab paper at @biorxivpreprint: https://t.co/Heoja9h5tV Here, @AlessioFragasso combines our biomimetics with MD simulations by @deVriesHW from Patrick Onck’s lab to study how transport receptors are an essential part of the Nuclear Pore Complex
#KapCentricModel https://t.co/sBTvGwowYb



Latest #CDlab paper at @biorxivpreprint: A synthetic membrane shaper for controlled liposome deformation https://t.co/a86wuMZhJa Here Nicola De Franceschi shows that DNA on liposomes can generate high yields of stomatocyte or dumbbell shapes. Great collaboration with @CG_Martini https://t.co/D2Rx7VQEcm



Its so inspiring to see former graduate students of our #CDlab branch out and build their own careers. Listen for example to this short statement of @calinplesa, now assistant professor at Oregon https://t.co/s8gO4bFeS0
