Incredibly proud to share that my PhD work is out in Science Signaling and made it to the journal cover!!🥳 Congratulations to all authors and a massive thank you to my supervisors @ssimoncelli and Prof. Andrew Cope.
A new imaging analysis uncovers an important molecular brake on T cell remodeling and activation, in vitro experiments reveal an unexpected role for the cell cycle regulator CDK1, and more this week in #ScienceSignaling. scim.ag/4fyRrts

Olivia P.L. Dalby, Sabrina Simoncelli @ssimoncelli et al. use super-resolution imaging and reveal that CAR-T cells assemble immunological synapses with distinct actin architectures, including reduced central clearance and enhanced protrusions. hubs.la/Q04r-3kn0

How do T cells restrain their activation? A team applies DNA-PAINT to visualize the immunological synapse and shows PTPN22 restricts actin remodeling and antigen sensitivity by interacting with PSTPIP1 at the plasma membrane. @MDJoseph97 @ssimoncelli scim.ag/4axoMl1

A study identifies how the protein PTPN22 controls how #Tcells remodel their cytoskeletons to form synapses with their targets—and suggests that defects in this constraint mechanism may contribute to #autoimmunity. @MDJoseph97 @ssimoncelli @UCLChemistry scim.ag/4axoMl1

Thrilled to share our latest work in @NanoLetters! Can we measure association and dissociation constants within cell environments? Check out how we use single-molecule localization microscopy to determine protein-protein interactions in T cells. 🥼🔬 💪 doi.org/10.1021/acs.nanolett…
