Besides @GLP_Robertson, all coauthors, @VUCellImaging, and wonderful collaborators @AtHinton and @LabMears, I would like to thank the patients and families for their permission to publish this work. EMPF1 is a devastating neurological disease without effective treatment or cure.

Publication day! Twitterless Tim Konig took a deep dive into the mechanisms that drive mito vesicle formation. Insights into cargo, lipid contribution and much more. Huge thanks to @TRLanger for proteomic/lipidomics, @AaltonenMariJ and all who helped! nature.com/articles/s41556-0…

Two years ago at about this month I was only getting rejections or no responses from graduate schools. If this is your situation, just remember there is always more than one way to get to graduate school, and PREP programs are a great alternative. mapdei.com/2021/02/27/nih-po…

This could be devastating for many international trainees, for their mentors and basically for the country. This needs to stop. #vote wsj.com/articles/new-rules-d…

Why mitochondria develop cristae? Here an interesting paper discussing this topic. nature.com/articles/s41598-0…
DYK diseases like neurodegeneration are associated w/defects in mitochondrial structure? Proteins called mitofusins are vital for maintaining proper mitochondrial..you guessed it, fusion! New @UWBiochemistry work examines key mitofusin structure/fxn: ow.ly/40Eb50vpodi

Let’s hope that Falcon 4 can be fully used through SerialEM.....:. in five years.
Here you go, quick link to new @thermosciEMSpec Titan Krios G4 (tinyurl.com/y4alahcf) and Falcon 4 (tinyurl.com/y6zsh25d) datasheets. #cryoEM Gonna miss the big mighty mystery-box enclosure though.
