Scientists at EPFL @LashuelLab have discovered a new mechanism that explains how proteins clump together and become sticky. This is one of the causes of neurological diseases such as Lou Gehrig's disease. - via @xpress_medical  medicalxpress.com/news/2023-…

Second day of #PortesOuvertesEPFL! Come visit our booth @epflSV Take a journey from how it feels to have Parkinson's tremor, to what we study in cells, and zoom into protein models 🧠 And try to write a protocol to make Nutella sandwich (spoiler: not as easy as it sounds! 🤯)

Finally able to share our latest work, just published! doi.org/10.1016/j.nbd.2023.1… We found a novel #caspase -2 cleavage site in #tau protein, and show that casp2 also processes D421. 1/3

Excited to share our preprint, where we overcome the alterations caused by fluorescent labeling. We utilize deep learning to identify and analyze live, unperturbed protein aggregates from transmitted light images with 96% accuracy. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
