Exploring life at the nanoscale
Latest #CDlab paper now at @acsnano: https://t.co/970ECMFtoA Here, we show that we can controllably make dumbbell-shaped or (the inverse of that:) stomatocyte-shaped liposomes. And we then study protein (FtsZ, DynA,..) bindings at their necks. Joint work with @CG_Martini lab! https://t.co/eVkiL7ZwYH 
We now put a new #CDlab paper on @biorxivpreprint where we use our recently introduced nanopore single-protein scanning method (see here https://t.co/alYHO8GVmt ) to detect single PTMs within single molecules: https://t.co/w6QOq4GE1c 4/ https://t.co/C9gzEHyIXI 
Latest #CDlab paper on @biorxivpreprint https://t.co/xGjjHfUImy Here, @MembraneMachine engineered ssRNA tile filaments for (dis)assembly and membrane binding, providing a toolbox for folding cytoskeletal systems made of RNA that can be transcribed in natural or synthetic cells. https://t.co/RfjulywHSA 
Today, at last, we published a paper where we resolve this question on how SMCs deal with obstacles bound to DNA â yielding lots of surprises! https://t.co/Ym4U77EQ89 Superb experiments by postdoc @BisLightyear of our #CDlab, in collaboration with Jan-Michael Peters et al. 1/7 https://t.co/1AyF5UN4BQ 
WORK! An opening for a PhD student (or postdoc) for research on synthetic cell division in a collaboration between the labs of @gijsjekoenderi1 and my #CDlab: https://t.co/yY8j0q4ITr
@cees_dekker This is not too surprising to me as I have had first hand experience of working with you. It was so much #inspiring and as much fun to work at #CDlab
Prompted by reactions to this tweet, I checked some stats: – More than 90 people graduated from our #CDlab as PhD student or postdoc. – ~50% (44 of them) now work as professors, – the other 50% branched out to industry, management etc I’m sĂł proud of all these wonderful alumni!
Actually, it even feels bit like a #CDlab reunion since by now the incredible number of 15 ex-lab members became professors at Universities in the Netherlands (and many others abroad) Sander Herre Sabina Sergii Serge Sonja Siddharth John Greg Iddo Rutger Hugo Rifka Jorine Felix
Aardig artikel in de @volkskrant over een experiment in ons #CDlab dat grandioos mislukte maar vervolgens tot een doorbaak van wereldformaat leidde: âWat we wilden bleek fundamenteel onmogelijk te zijn, maar gelukkig gaven we niet opâ https://t.co/NnjOfxKcuf
While brilliant PhD candidates are invited, we particularly invite POSTDOC candidates to apply! NB We foster diversity and FEMALE candidates are particularly invited to apply, since the gender balance of #CDlab recently declined with the departure of quite some females. Apply! https://t.co/xxXCbSVxEi 
‘Aanstaande industriĂ«le nanorevolutie dankzij nanoturbines van DNA’ – leuk artikel in @NTvN_tweets over het recente werk van postdoc @xinshi_d uit ons #CDlab https://t.co/fTTlcq0kYt 
Latest #CDlab paper online in @NatureNano: https://t.co/3mApt2s22h In this review paper, a broad consortium of nanopore scientists was brought together by @YTLong_Chem to review many nanopore-based technologies that go beyond DNA sequencing: sensing, catalysis, biomimetics, etc. https://t.co/6cuaH7dY0u 
Happy that our paper on Bias in News Recommendation in the Perception of the Covid-19 Pandemic is presented today #RecSys2022 in the workshop on Responsible Recommendation @ThomasEKolb @j_neidhardt @m_sertkan https://t.co/oIeN94Ej3W #digitalhumanism #interdisciplinarity #CDLab
News! Henry Brinkerhoff of our #CDlab won the “Kavli Best Publication Prize 2022” for his paper
on nanopore reading of single proteins at single-amino-acid resolution in Science last year (see https://t.co/8ek4jlhvbr ). Congrats Henry and team!! https://t.co/eTAcVEmcTa 
âŠ@the_adam_hallâ© now look at that: the #CDlab gave me a âMwah awardâ!
Isnt that _incredibly_ coincidental – as you made a Mwah joke about me last May! https://t.co/KHQyTABKQM 
At last some competitive sports at the #CDlab retreat – blokarten at high winds! https://t.co/bZNLsUYd5A 
“@cees_dekker should we start another Whatsapp group with you in it?” – Ask the professor anything session during the #CDLab trip https://t.co/ffcuWqGMMU 
This evening, our #CDlab retreat will feature an âAsk Cees anythingâ session where I will answer _all_ anonymous questions of group members. https://t.co/85Ud30Yqay
